Under his leadership, the British Poultry Council made its positions front-and-centre at all times and became a strong partner for ministers, government agencies and the agri-food industry. In addition to his unique contributions to the British industry, he was also instrumental to international poultry bodies at European and global level. The poultry sector is very grateful for his years of service."

The position will be filled by Andrew Large from the Cleaning and Support Services Association. Mr Large background includes spells in the civil service (in London and Brussels), industry, Corus and BOC Group and Trade Bodies, Federation of Master Builders (FMB).
