BSP Consulting’s business development director Jef Todd has become the regional chairman of the East Midlands fbe (Forum for the Built Environment).
Jef, who has been on the committee of the property, development and construction professionals’ group for three years, and was vice chairman, takes over from Nic Jepson, director of Nottingham-based InLine Property Consultants, who held the post for two years. Nic has been made East Midlands regional director, having been promoted after Adrienne Vaughan, AVA PR, completed her two-year tenure in the role.
Jef has worked at civil and structural engineering firm BSP Consulting, which is based at Oxford Street, Nottingham, and has offices in Derby, Leicester and Sheffield, since 2001. He said: “This is a key appointment and I am looking forward to promoting the fbe across the East Midlands.”
The fbe is a national organisation, with branches across the UK and is the longest established networking group for the property, development and construction industries. Initially established in the East Midlands, the organisation runs an annual awards scheme, as well as a number of social and other events. It covers Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.
Other committee members include: Louise Whitehead, legal director at solicitors Shakespeares in Leicester, Adrienne Vaughan, managing director at Lutterworth-based AVA PR, and Eddie Mewies, managing director of civil engineering firm M-EC Consulting Development Engineers in Ibstock.
