Nicole Spencer, operations director at RMC Digital Print, will head up the FESPA º£½ÇÊÓÆµ Association, which represents the country’s multi-million pound print industry.
Ms Spencer previously held the position of vice president at FESPA º£½ÇÊÓÆµ, and has now stepped up to become the first woman to hold the title of president.
She said: “It’s a real honour to be appointed president of an association that represents the interests of the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ’s printing industry.
“As a member of FESPA º£½ÇÊÓÆµ Association for many years, I have found the support and guidance offered by the association absolutely invaluable throughout my career, so to have the opportunity to lead the organisation and play my part in its continued success means a great deal.
“I look forward to building on the fantastic work that is already being delivered by FESPA º£½ÇÊÓÆµ Association as we collaborate with our partners throughout the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ to drive innovation and excellence within our industry."
