North Lincolnshire businessman Barrie Turner has been named as CEO designate of the Suffolk Sheep Society Ltd, starting in the role on August 8th.
Barrie, pictured, has a wealth of experience in the Agri-sector and the pedigree livestock world, including four years as CEO of the Aberdeen-Angus Cattle Society. He is fully aware of the mechanics and workings of a leading pedigree Breed Society and has already told the Society that he is looking forward to concentrating on the Suffolk Breed itself as well as engaging with the membership and focusing on their needs and wants.
Although Barrie does not officially take up his new post until 8th August, he is very much looking forward to the benefits of a hand-over period with the current CEO and he is planning to attend the Society National Show & Sale in Shrewsbury on the 29th & 30th July.
