Strategy & Advisory Board

Strategy & Advisory Board

PARN is pleased to announce that in December 2011 we set up a new Strategy & Advisory Board to support and challenge us as an organisation to:

  • Assess, support and challenge strategic plans
  • Help monitor the progress of PARN in fulfilling plans
  • Assess directions and ideas for business development
  • Evaluate financial viability and risk management in the context of PARN's mission, vision and values

 

Our Strategy & Advisory Board members are:

Simon Sperryn has 25 years experience as CEO of business representative bodies at local, regional and national level.
 
As a professional lobbyist, he is used to working at the interface of public and private sectors. He worked as the CEO of the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry for 10 years and was also a director of the British Chambers of Commerce and Industry.
 
As a keen supporter of vocational education, he has served on a wide range of governing bodies, including schools, colleges, training councils, industry partnerships and a business school.  
 
Graham Briscoe has worked in many "management services" roles throughout his 30 year career with Royal & SunAlliance in Bristol, Horsham and Liverpool.
 
Since retirement in 2004 has developed his "Community Investment" support activities with Lectureships in Higher Education / Universities, Governor roles on Further Education College Corporations, Charity Trustee, Professional Institute Councils and Housing Association Board appointments.
