CPA Appoints New Chief Executive

Dr Diana Montgomery, who is currently the Deputy Chief Executive at the Chemical

Industries Association, has been appointed as the new Chief Executive of the

Construction Products Association (CPA).

She will take over from Michael Ankers who retires at the Association's AGM in April.

Diana graduated from Oxford University with a chemistry degree and was subsequently awarded a Doctor of Philosophy for her work on Environment and Waste Resources at the Imperial College, London. Before joining the CIA in 2006 she was Group Head of Environment at Centrica, and prior to that worked with the Automobile Association and Johnson Wax.

Commenting on the appointment, the Association’s Chairman, Bill Bolsover, said: "I am delighted that we have been able to appoint such a strong candidate to take over as the Association's Chief Executive. Diana brings a wealth of relevant experience to this role and we look forward to her leading the Association and taking forward the strategic development programme that we developed last year."
