The Surrey branch of the Institute of Directors (IoD) has announced Robert May as its new chairman. May has served on the IoD Surrey committee for a numbers of years in roles including deputy and acting chairman.
He is managing director of Godalming-based IT company ramsac which he founded in 1991. ramsac was listed in the 2013 list of top 50 managed-services companies for the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) region, and is one of Microsoft’s top 10 partners in the South East.
Speaking about his appointment May said: “I’m delighted to chair IoD Surrey. We are a thriving local branch of one of the UK’s leading business membership organisations. And as the largest of all the southern branches, our membership encompasses directors from all sectors and all business sizes which adds a depth and dimension hard to find elsewhere.”
May picks up the reins from previous IoD Surrey chairman David Seall, who is now chairman of the wider IoD South region.
Seall said: “Robert is an excellent leader and a very able and active chairman. This appointment is great news for everyone involved including the 15-strong committee working alongside him.”
Covering around 2,700 members, the IoD Surrey branch is run by local business people and IoD staff to support local members and organise inspirational and valuable business events in the area.
