A former health boss believes there are too many managers at the helm of the Health Ministry.

Newstalk ZB can reveal the Ministry of Health considered trimming executive salaries but eventually landed on a job cutting proposal.

The ministry's looking at a net loss of 134 roles as the public service has been ordered to trim the fat by the Government.

Ex Health New Zealand Te Whatu Ora Chair Rob Campbell told Mike Hosking that he believes management numbers will likely be whittled down.

But he says if you get the quality of what you do up, you don't need as many people.
