UK Major Ports Group (UKMPG), the trade association for the UK’s major port operators, has appointed Geraint Evans as its ceo.
Evans will join UKMPG in May from the global consulting firm Stonehaven, where he was a partner. Prior to Stonehaven, Evans served as a special adviser under three consecutive UK prime ministers – David Cameron, Theresa May and Boris Johnson.
UKMPG chairman, Charles Hammond, said: “Geraint has extensive experience of operating within government at the highest levels and has a proven track record of developing and influencing policy. We look forward to welcoming Geraint to UKMPG, at this crucial time, when the role of ports is continuing to adapt to support the UK economy transition to a low carbon future.”
