“I am passionate about ensuring that all three of the society’s professional sectors – the Institute of Road Transport Engineers, the Institution of Plant Engineers, and the Bureau of Engineer Surveyors – are considered leading lights in their respective industries,” says Chisholm.
“Members of the IRTE, IPlantE and BES represent the backbone of a growing and evolving economy, and I intend to ensure that their voices are heard in all the right places,” he continues.
“With a talented team at the SOE’s London headquarters, I will explore new funding and innovative revenue streams that will guarantee the sustainability of the organisation.”
Since joining the society as an engineering executive in 2001, Chisholm has overseen significant developments in SOE’s membership recruitment and retention, marketing and communications, and stakeholder management.
Chisholm declares that the interest of its members has always been the priority for SOE, with consistent and open two-way communication being the key.
“The opinion of every member counts, and I firmly believe this is what continues to drive SOE forward,” he says.
