joined the Food Industry Specialist Group, again becoming Chairman. At about the same time he joined the IMS Membership Affairs Committee under Ron Whitley and was a member for some years. Malcolm was appointed to the Fellowship upgrade panel, on which he still sits. Following a short spell in management consultancy Malcolm moved to the NHS at the time when new hospital Trusts were being set up. He took on responsibilities for medical litigation and governance as well as safety and risk management. He progressed to associate


director within a large acute Trust and successfully led a major accreditation programme.


More recently Malcolm has set up and managed a risk and insurance function within local government. Work on business continuity and emergency planning led to a Beacon Award and Malcolm now chairs a Risk Assessment Working Group for the Local Resilience Forum. This makes him part of the government’s regional resilience group.


Outside interests You would imagine that all this leaves limited spare


time, however, Malcolm has a wide range of interests. He has directed some amateur theatre work in the Royal Albert Hall and he founded and runs a quiz league in Grimsby. He recently stood down after 14 years as Chair of Governors at a secondary school and enjoyed a spell as chair of a canoe club. He is a keen traveller, visiting Hawaii, China, South Africa, Australia, Russia and recently Alaska. As a fell walker he has stood atop Sca Fell Pike, Snowdon and Ben Nevis, and he enjoys motorcycling and caravanning. On top of all this Malcolm has just started the second year of


a Master’s Degree in Law at Salford to add to his MBA. As a Council member, Malcolm intends to ensure that membership is seen more than simply an income stream and that quality is seen as an important dimension. He will also work to ensure that recruitment opportunities, particularly within growing global economies, are identifi ed and addressed.
