Forum announces new appointment

Rail Forum has announced it has further strengthened its team with the appointment of an engagement manager.

Dave Ellis will be joining the organisation from next month, where he will be responsible for developing relationships with and providing support to forum members.

He will also support the wider Rail Forum team with the delivery of various events and activities.

Dave, who previously worked for the Railway Children charity, said: “I’m really looking forward to my new role having seen so much of what is good about our industry and the people and companies operating within rail.

“I’m delighted to join and become part of what is already such a great team at Rail Forum.”

Elaine Clark, chief executive at Rail Forum, said: “Dave brings many years of experience building successful relationships not just in the charity sector but also previously in the private sector with the likes of Heineken and Coca Cola.

“Our members will benefit from his proactive and supportive approach; reinforcing our philosophy that members are at the heart of everything we do.”
