Andrew Williams, Managing Director of National Boat Shows today announced that shortly after the forthcoming Tullett Prebon London International Boat Show, his fifth since joining NBS, he will be leaving to take up a new position as Marketing Director at PrincessYachts International.
Andrew said: “I have had four and half fantastic years at NBS, culminating in the rejuvenated Show that we will all see at ExCeL London in January. Even though I’m sad to be leaving NBS I know the Shows are in good hands and will go from strength to strength, continuing to benefit the whole leisure marine industry. I have been fortunate enough to meet and work with some great people in this industry and I look forward to staying in touch with many of them through my role at Princess.”
Rob Stevens, Chief Executive of the British Marine Federation said: “We will be very sad to see Andrew go after such a successful time at NBS. Together with the NBS team he has steered the Shows through some difficult times and delivered an excellent vision for the future. This puts the team and the Show in good stead and exhibitors and BMF members can be assured of the on-going commitment to deliver the best showcases for the leisure marine industry.
“The fact that Andrew’s talents will remain within the marine industry is very good news and I speak on behalf of all at the BMF and its Boards in congratulating him on his move to Princess.”
Andrew will remain in post with NBS throughout the forthcoming London Show and until 20th January. Despite his excitement for his new role, he is as committed and as passionate as ever to deliver, along with the NBS team, the best possible commercial opportunities for exhibitors and the industry at the Tullett Prebon London International Boat Show.
