Changes made to RCVS Senior Team
30 September 2016
Significant changes to the structure of the College’s Senior Team, which leads the organisation on a day-to-day basis, were agreed as part of a special meeting of RCVS Council on Thursday 29 September 2016.
The changes made were:
- The appointment of Eleanor Ferguson as the College’s Registrar. Eleanor was previously Head of Professional Conduct and had been Acting Registrar since March 2016, following the resignation of Gordon Hockey.
- The appointment of Lizzie Lockett as Deputy Chief Executive Officer, in addition to her role as Director of Strategic Communications and Director of the Mind Matters Initiative.
- The appointment of Anthony Roberts as Director of Leadership and Innovation. Anthony was previously Practice Standards Manager and Special Advisor to the CEO
- The appointment of Corrie McCann as Assistant Registrar, in addition to her role as Director of Operations.
- Lesley Evans, Director of Human Resources, is taking early retirement and will leave the College at the end of the year.
- A change in title for Christine Warman and Julie Dugmore to Director of Education and Director of Veterinary Nursing respectively.
Council also discussed the College’s next strategic plan (for 2017 to 2019) following the completion of the previous three-year plan. The final draft of the plan will be put to Council for approval at its next public meeting, on Thursday 10 November 2016.
Nick Stace, the College’s CEO, said: “I am delighted to announce these appointments, which received the unanimous support of RCVS Council.
“It is an exciting time for the College as we conclude our current strategic plan (with 34 out of the 35 objectives already met) and finalise the new outward facing three-year strategy.
“The focus of the new strategy is on becoming first rate in everything we do, helping the profession embrace innovation, developing the next generation of leaders locally, nationally and internationally and helping support a blame-free learning culture in the professions.
“This new structure will enable us to meet these challenges as well as the many opportunities outlined in the Vet Futures and VN Futures reports and will help us to build on the foundations laid of a Royal College that the professions can be proud of and that the public can trust.”
