David Workman to step down as Director General of the Confederation of Paper Industries

May 10, 2016. /Lesprom Network/. The Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI) has announced that its Director General, David Workman, is to step down later this year, giving ample time for a successor to be appointed. Applications for this prestigious post are now being sought.

Mr Workman commented: “I have really enjoyed the last six years, and will leave with very mixed feelings, but I believe that the time is right for a change. The legislative landscape is evolving and bringing with it fresh challenges which I think are best handled by someone able to lead the organisation through into the 2020s. My successor will inherit a fantastic team of people who together have transformed CPI into a very high profile and successful trade association.”

The Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI) is the leading trade association representing the UK’s Paperbased Industries, comprising recovered paper merchants, paper and board manufacturers and converters, corrugated packaging producers, and makers of soft tissue papers.
