\n

Clive Scrivener has been appointed as the first permanent non-executive chairman of the VCA<\/abbr> following an open competition.<\/p>\n

Clive, who takes up the position in October 2018, is an experienced senior business leader, with a track record of founding, managing and leading a number of companies, principally in the automotive arena. Currently a non-executive director at the VCA<\/abbr> and Chairman of the Audit Committee, Clive has an excellent grounding in the work of the agency as well a strong appreciation of the opportunities and challenges that lay ahead.<\/p>\n

Clive is also chairman of a number of leading industry disrupters in sectors including autonomous vehicle software and advanced battery management systems technology. His experience leaves Clive well placed to support the VCA<\/abbr> across its broad range of responsibilities, including in preparing for the regulatory challenges associated with the type approval of increasingly complex vehicle systems.<\/p>\n

Department for Transport Permanent Secretary, Bernadette Kelly said:<\/p>\n

\n

Clive has a distinguished track record of leading high-profile organisations and brings with him a wealth of expertise that will be invaluable as Non-executive Chairman of the VCA<\/abbr>.<\/p>\n

Having spent some time immersed in the VCA<\/abbr>\u2019s work he understands the responsibilities it holds and the important role the agency plays through the support it offers to industry.<\/p>\n

I would like to thank our outgoing Non-executive Director and acting Chairman, Sue Sharland, for the excellent work she has done in getting the VCA<\/abbr> to where it is today.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Clive Scrivener said:<\/p>\n

\n

It is a great privilege to be appointed as the first Non-Executive Chairman at the VCA<\/abbr>. I\u2019ve enjoyed working with the senior management team during my time as a non-executive and I look forward to supporting the agency to deliver its wide ranging obligations, particularly at a time of such great change for the automotive industry<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Pia Wilkes, CEO<\/abbr> at VCA<\/abbr> said:<\/p>\n

\n

I\u2019m delighted that Clive will be taking up the role of non-executive chairman, he will bring an incredible range and depth of experience to it; I look forward to continuing to work with him. I would also like to take this opportunity to recognise the outstanding contribution of Sue Sharland, our outgoing Lead Non-executive and Acting Chairman.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
