The NAJ are delighted to announce that they have appointed a new Chief Executive Officer.
Simon Forrester is a successful trade association leader, with over 22 years’ experience in strategic-level association management and an MBA specialising in association development.
Simon has a track record of delivering increased member benefits, training courses, governance reviews, best practice and a substantial code of conduct linked to purchaser confidence.
