Last month Switchboard announced Daniel Cheesman would be stepping down as CEO after two years in the post.
FOLLOWING a successful recruitment campaign Switchboard have announced that Lyndsay Macadam will be taking over as the new Chief Executive Officer later in the spring.
Lyndsay comes to Switchboard from Brighton-based community development charity TDC where they were Director of Equalities, specialising in reducing health inequalities and isolation, and empowering and involving communities.
Prior to this Lyndsay has many years’ experience in the community and voluntary sector in Brighton, London and Scotland, supporting and representing communities of identity through their work in infrastructure and community development.
Lyndsay is committed to equalities, inclusion and social justice, particularly ensuring that minority and intersectional communities are represented in decision-making processes and have access to appropriate services, as well as challenging stigma, hate crime and inequalities.
Dawn Draper Chair of Switchboard said; “We are delighted that Lyndsay will be joining us as our new CEO later this year. It is an exciting time for Switchboard as we plan for our 45th year and Lyndsay has the skills, experience and knowledge that we are looking for.”
Lyndsay will take over from Daniel Cheesman later in the spring.
