BPCA: CEO recruitment is underway

Simon KingBy Simon King24 January 2025No Comments2 Mins Read

BPCA has announced that the search for its new chief executive has begun.

  • Working closely with the Executive Board, the core of the role will have a focus on:
  • Championing the interests of the pest control sector to government and stakeholders;
  • Developing comprehensive business strategies;
  • Promoting membership growth and protecting the sector’s toolkit; and
  • Professional development in the industry.

BPCA operations manager Lorraine Norton said: “We’ve developed a candidate pack for potential interviewees showcasing the award-winning work BPCA has done regarding lobbying, membership engagement, and public relations.

“We aim to attract candidates who can support the strong position BPCA is in and take the organisation even further.”

Who picks the next BPCA chief executive?
Ms Norton continued: “BPCA is owned and run by its members, which is why member volunteers will appoint the new CEO. The Executive Board has delegated the interview process to a recruitment panel of five out of eleven Board members.

“Once it have a preferred candidate(s) in mind, they will meet the rest of the Board, who will make the final decision together”.

Any member can get involved with the interview process by submitting a question for the candidates.

Ms Norton added: “We’re going to be posing many questions to potential candidates, and while we already have some in mind, we’re open to suggestions!

“If there’s anything you think we can ask interviewees, send us an email to [email protected] by Wednesday, February 5, and the recruitment panel will consider all suggestions.

“Our aim is for the Executive Board to be able to make an appointment offer during their next Board meeting on Tuesday, March 4, and while it’s not guaranteed, we hope the new chief executive will be able to join us at PPC Live Wednesday, March 19, to informally meet you all before officially starting in their role”.

Applications and job description
Applications will be taken via an agency that specialises in chief executive recruitment, so we know that we’re going to get a great raft of candidates.

We hope to see strong applications from inside and outside the industry with the relevant experience to lead a busy, high-performing Trade Association.
