LEEA Announces New Chair, Other Board Changes

At the end of 2023, Kat Moss will complete her two years of service as chair of the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) Board and will be succeeded in January 2024 by current vice chair, Oliver Auston. LEEA said that Moss has been pivotal in many key initiatives, such as the Lifting Technician Apprenticeship that is now being delivered in England. With her tenure commencing in January 2022, the pandemic-dominated period actually helped bring forward some of the plans Moss had in mind for LEEA, such as online courses becoming more digital. This will be the second time Oliver Auston, CEO of Safehold, has served as Chair of LEEA, having previously held the role from 2016 to 2017. Taking on the vice chair role in January will be Dave Cormack, managing director at Delphini Ltd. Other key LEEA board roles will be Derek Buck as Technical Committee chair and Chris Towne as Learning & Development Committee chair.
