National Members Representative Group (NMRG )

I have been a member of the APS for over 10 years, during that time I’ve seen the Association as a strong knowledge base and source of learning and development as I’ve shaped my career to my current role as Head of CDM Services for Bureau Veritas UK. 

Now, with the Association reshaping to respond to current changes, and seeking to increase representation in our membership. I feel it is time to be part of that change and to put myself forward to engage with and represent my fellow members in the region to ensure they are listened to and their diverse views represented as we move forwards together. 

I have experience of representing Employees and Volunteers on forums and representative committees, and it is important to me that all members, from the diverse sectors of the construction industry, personal and career backgrounds, that the APS draws together, feel part of the Association and that their Association, is listening to and working for them. 

As part of this post I would therefore seek ways to enable this for the members in the region.
