Europe |

On 7th March 2022, Dr Ian Lancaster will join the Eurobitume team as General Manager Eurobitume UK.

Currently UK Technical Manager at Nynas, Ian brings with him almost twenty-eight years of bitumen industry experience and expertise, which will be invaluable in his new role representing Eurobitume members’ interests and reinforcing Eurobitume’s position as the first reference for bitumen in Europe.

Ian commented: “I am really excited to be taking up this new role and becoming an integral member of the Eurobitume team. As well as providing expertise and management support across Eurobitume’s core areas of HSE, Safe Handling of Bitumen, Technical, Sustainability and Communications, I am looking forward to interacting with members across all European markets.”

In his first year, Ian will focus on continuing to provide specific support for Eurobitume’s activities in the UK, as well as transitioning himself into some more central functional based roles within the organisation.

Eurobitume Director General Siobhan McKelvey added: “Ian takes over from Dave Whiteoak, who I would like to say a big thank you to in recognition of all his support and commitment as an important member of the Eurobitume team, and for taking care of Eurobitume’s UK interests since March 2021.”
