EngineeringUK appoints chief executive

Mark Titterington will become the chief executive of EngineeringUK, which represents British engineers and engineering companies.

Titterington will join the organisation after more than a decade at Syngenta, an agriculture technology company where he is the global head of corporate affairs. He will start his new job in October.

Malcolm Brinded, who chairs EngineeringUK, said in a statement on 5 July that Titterington’s business background and policy experience made him well placed to “build on the achievements” of departing chief executive Paul Jackson.
