Stronger HTA Executive Team to drive member value

Company: HTA

Following a review carried out by the Board of the HTA, the association’s Executive Team will be strengthened in line with anticipated member needs.

Adam Taylor, President, said: -  “The Board has decided to implement a number of improvements, including enhanced communication with membership and the increased ability to influence government at a time of significant change. The Board is confident that this structure will drive HTA member value. I have no doubt that the HTA is in a position of great strength and that the Executive Team, headed by Alex Vick, will drive the association forwards.”

Martin Simmons, taking on the new role of Director of Membership, will promote member engagement and satisfaction. Martin’s industry knowledge and his horticultural background will provide continuity and an experienced voice when working with the key sector Committees. Martin will be the main point of contact for all membership and will ensure the members’ voice is communicated through to the HTA Board to influence the association’s activities to meet members’ needs. His team includes Horticulture Manager, Alistair Yeomans.

The remits of Alex Vick, Senior Executive Director and Finance Director, and Anne Clark, Director of HR & Learning, are widened to maximise member value across areas including improved learning and development and gifting.

To further strengthen the Executive Team, the HTA will recruit a Director of Policy and Communication to effectively lobby government on members’ behalves and implement an improved communication strategy.

The Executive Team at the HTA comprises:

  • Alex Vick, Senior Executive Director & Finance Director
  • Martin Simmons, Director of Membership
  • Anne Clark, Director of HR & Learning
  • Director of Policy & Communication
