RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - A panel tasked with reviewing operations at the Secret Service has recommended the agency hire a new director from outside the ranks of the agency in order to secure "dynamic leadership that can move the service forward into a new era and drive change in the organization."

The recommendations come two months after experts were asked to give a once-over of the high level protection service following a series of gaffes, behavior problems with agents, and breaches of security at the White House.

Julia Peirson resigned her job as agency director in October. The review panel was named by Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.

The panel made numerous recommendations.
