This year is a special and significant one for CILT, as throughout 2019 the Institute will celebrate its centenary.

The new President will build upon the significant work of his predecessor Robin Proctor FCILT, who helped implement a new strategy and shape a new vision for the Institute during his tenure. Robin said: “It has been an honour to be President of CILT(UK). I took the role at an important time for our profession and also for the Institute. I am proud of the job we have done to ensure we successfully raised awareness of and promoted CILT’s influence throughout the profession. I wish Paul all the very best in this role, and I am sure he will lead the Institute with distinction throughout this special celebratory year.”

Paul Sainthouse has spent more than 30 years with Dawsongroup, a specialist asset rental business operating in several related markets within the logistics sector, joining as a management trainee in 1987, and since 2002 in his current role as Managing Director of the group’s bus and coach business.
