NEW South Wales' caravan and camping industry has moved to
strengthen relationships across its trade membership.
Leading the effort will be Jason Beckford (pictured), who has been
appointed new manager of the Caravan & Camping Industry Association's
Trade Engagement and Services.
"Jason's skills and experience, with a background in transport, logistics
and stakeholder management, along with a qualification in auto electrics,
will be invaluable in his new role," association chief executive Lyndel
Gray said.
"We are pleased to welcome Jason on board and believe he will be a
valuable resource for our industry."
Ms Gray said the position provided an important link between trade
members, the broader industry and government. The relationship had proved
invaluable during recent changes to the Motor Dealers and Repairers
regulations.
"During the lengthy consultation process, the CCIA provided a forum for
direct industry input into the development of the new regulations and we
were able to both protect and strengthen industry standards in a way that
recognises its unique operating environment," she said.
With over 200 trade members across NSW, Mr Beckford's role will be crucial
in communicating technical and industry development information,
legislative changes and garnering feedback and advice from members along
with coordinating industry training and education.
"I am excited to be joining the CCIA team and to have an opportunity to
help members build their business expertise, support the flow of
information and facilitate education opportunities," he said.
"This is a fantastic, dynamic industry and I am looking forward to
bringing my skills to this role and getting out and about to meet the
members."
