Ben Goodwin, CECA director of policy and public affairsCECA has appointed Ben Goodwin as director of policy and public affairs. He effectively replaces Marie-Claude Hemming, CECA’s external affairs chief and director of policy who left in June to join the Association for Consultancy & Engineering (ACE). Goodwin has joined CECA from the Institute of Sustainability & Environmental Professionals (formerly IEMA) where he held a similar role. “Civil engineering contractors play a vital role in delivering the infrastructure that underpins the UK’s economy, society, and transition to net zero,” Ben Goodwin said. His extensive experience across infrastructure, sustainability, and government engagement will be invaluable as we continue to champion the interests of our members, and ensure the industry is equipped to meet future challenges.
