Commenting on her appointment, Suzanne said: “I am delighted to join the UKs leading trade association, BMF, and reconnect with all the BMF Members in my area. This is a wonderful opportunity for me to support the BMF and its members through the sector awareness campaign and to encourage greater engagement with everyone in the industry with regional meetings, forums, training and apprenticeship schemes. I am looking forward to this new challenge, catching up with old acquaintances and making new contacts in the industry.”
Mike Tattam, commercial director of the BMF, said: “We are delighted that Suzanne has joined the BMF’s regional management team, taking over from Richard Jones, who is stepping down into well-earned retirement.

Her focus on finding solutions coupled with strong customer relationship management skills will undoubtedly benefit our members throughout the region.”
