Suzanne Wylie has gone from heading up Belfast City Council, responsible for the running a bustling city, to now working in a city which has been silent for weeks. The chief executive speaks to John Mulgrew about a "different but bustling” city post-coronavirus, opening it up to the public, pushing for more city living, working remotely, retraining and reskilling, and ensuring a future for the economy.
