Dear AMPS Member,
It is with a fond farewell, we announce that David Oates, AMPS Director General concluded his appointment on 31st January 2025.
David has been our Director General since January 2023 and has brought passion, professionalism and value to the Association in support of our Members, the Council and various Committees. He has worked tirelessly in developing new routes for the Association to access and provide the latest on Government policy that impacts our industry, growing the reach and influence of the Association through identifying and securing new Partnerships, building the membership base and of course, being the face of AMPS at the many events and exhibitions that the Associations hosts or attends.
The Council met on 28th January 2025, for our first meeting of the year, and a massive thank you was extended to David for everything he has done in the last two years for the Association. I would also like to extend a personal thank you to David for his support and guidance to me as Chair.
We wish him all the very best in his new position as CEO of Allam Power as he takes up his new role from February 2025. Great news that he joins an AMPS member Company and will continue in our industry!
The appointment of the new Director General has already been made, with our incoming DG joining us in April 2025. A sub-committee of the Council conducted the recruitment process toward the end of last year and whilst we will have a short period between David’s departure and April, I do believe it will be worth the wait!
Further details on who will be taking up the reins and continuing to move us forward will be shared in due course, in the meantime it is business as usual with the wonderful support of our Secretariat ASL and the ongoing work of the Committees and Council.
Thank you David and we will see you at the luncheon!
