It is with sadness and pride that I announce my resignation as CORREX managing director, a role I have held for the last 5 years plus. This is due to the role changing and evolving and taking much more time than it originally did. What with that and being the senior trainer for CORREX, added to that of my normal role as Paintel Technical Director, it has all become too much.
There is good news, however. A new managing director has been chosen and is already in the post, and many of you will know him. He is Mr. Paul Brooks, a fellow member of ICorr and current chair of the London Branch.
Paul comes with huge experience and is a specialist in cathodic protection. Paul and I have been working together these last few weeks to assist in the transition, and he is already proving to be a successful MD. I will continue to support Paul as needed in the new role.
Plus, you don’t get rid of me that easily. I will remain the senior trainer for CORREX, so you still have access to me and my knowledge of all things paint and other related topics, even developing new courses as you read this.
Paul and I have already developed a strong working bond, and I look forward to working with him and all of you going into the future.
I would also like to add that we finally have a fully working new card system database directly linked to CSCS. This will keep us compliant for years to come, so our affiliation with CSCS is stronger than ever.
