Global Infusion Group (GIG) has announced the appointment of David Joel to its board as a non-executive director at what it describes as a pivotal point for the business.
The event catering and brand logistics specialist said Joel is a highly accomplished chartered director with him more than three decades of senior leadership and governance experience across the defence, technology and professional services sectors. He joins GIG as the company moves to become both B Corp certified and BRC Global Standard accredited.
Currently the managing director of Lanson Consultants Limited, a director development and governance consultancy, Joel also holds non-executive roles at Alcohols Ltd – one of the UK’s last independent gin distillers. Previous appointments include senior roles with Serco Test Technology, Apex Studios Ltd, the National Youth Music Theatre and Portsmouth NHS Trust.
GIG CEO Bonnie May said, “David’s wealth of governance expertise and boardroom experience makes him a valuable addition to our team. His insight will be instrumental in helping us continue to evolve as a business as we seek to achieve B Corp certification and become BRC Global Standard accredited. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the board.”
Last year, GIG’s catering division celebrated its 40th year in business, supporting events such as Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres tour, Team GB’s Performance Lodge in Paris, Glastonbury Festival and high-profile government projects including the European Political Summit.
