The Board of Kangaroo Island Plantation Timbers (KIPT) has for some time planned a transition to a governance and management structure better suited to an operating timber export business. The Board is delighted to announce that Mr Keith Lamb has joined KIPT as a Non-executive Director.
Mr Lamb holds masters-level qualifications in Forestry and in Business Administration. He was Director of Operations and Portfolio Manager for New Forests Asset Management Pty Ltd from 2005 until 2017, with responsibility for $2.5 billion in timberland and related agricultural and industrial assets.
Mr Lamb has also served as a director of several forestry companies and trusts within and outside the New Forests group. His early career included both government and non-government forestry roles.
Kangaroo Island Plantation Timbers is Australia’s only listed timberland company. It manages a wholly-owned portfolio of hardwood and softwood forestry plantations, growing on former agricultural land on Kangaroo Island, South Australia.
