The Greater Lincolnshire LEP has added its Manufacturing Board to the list of groups it needs new members for.
The LEP is looking for leaders in manufacturing to join the Board as ambassadors for the industry and to represent the sector across Greater Lincolnshire, including as Chair and Vice Chair.
Board member David Talbot of Catch UK said: “As a member of the Greater Lincolnshire LEP Manufacturing Board, I have been impressed by how the group has been a driving force behind supporting the manufacturing industry in the region.
“It has been so much more than a group that meets and networks, as it actually delivers. The board has provided support to some fantastic initiatives such as the University of Lincoln-led Greater Lincolnshire Engineering and Manufacturing network group and the Lincolnshire Institute of Technology among many others.
“This support can only enhance and improve the manufacturing base in our region. As the CEO of an industrial membership and skills organisation in the Humber it’s great to be able to bring a knowledge base to this board from our members with the aim of championing manufacturing across Greater Lincolnshire.
“We particularly welcome applications from female candidates and candidates from diverse backgrounds.
This role is voluntary and will involve attending four meetings per year, currently being hosted virtually. Occasional presentations to the LEP Board may also be required. Further information from Amy O’Sullivan at the LEP – amy.o’sullivan@lincolnshire.gov.uk
