Paul Nash to prioritise ethics and continued expansion of the professional body
New CIOB president Paul Nash has told 好色先生TV his priorities in the role will include championing professional ethics and governance, and continued expansion of the body.
The Turner & Townsend director, who began his year-long tenure as CIOB president last month, believes globalisation and advances in technology have brought ethics and governance issues to the fore.
He said: 鈥淕overnance needs to underpin everything as when it goes wrong as we鈥檝e seen outside as well as inside our industry it goes very wrong and the damage financially and for reputations can be huge.鈥
Nash wants the CIOB to raise awareness of ethics issues and provide members with the practical tools to help tackle the challenge. The CIOB鈥檚 academy is already launching an ethics and governance module this year.
This push is on top of continuing the CIOB鈥檚 growth plans to increase its global membership, as well as looking at whether the CIOB could become an academic accreditation body.
Nash added that the government needs to create more certainty around its construction pipeline. At T&T, he is working on HM Revenue & Customs鈥 estate plans to create 13 new regional hubs, which has already seen the government sign up for space in Ruskin Square, Croydon.
