Outgoing Interserve chief executive Adrian Ringrose will replace James Wates as chairman of The Prince’s Trust Built Environment Leadership Group.
Wates is stepping down in March after three years at the group. Over the last decade the Trust has changed the lives of over 6,000 young people, helping them find work in one of the built environment sectors, particularly in construction and facilities management.
Under Ringrose during the next three years the Trust aims to step up its programme providing training and career opportunities to 10,000 young people in construction.
Ringrose said: “It is a win-win situation for the industry: while we are doing our bit to help young people, we are also addressing a worrying skills shortage which is affecting our businesses.
“My aim, as chairman, will be to encourage companies to invest in Prince’s Trust programmes, offer tangible outcomes, work placements and volunteering opportunities. I hope to see The Trust’s reputation grow as a partner of choice for the industry.”
