A well-known figure on the regional business scene is set to be appointed as chairman of East Midlands Chamber.
Kevin Harris, who heads up the Leicester office of accountants RSM UK, will succeed Ian Morgan OBE in the role on February 1, next year.
Mr Harris – who was last year named non-executive of the year at the LeicestershireLive Business Executive awards – recently stepped down from his role as chairman of the Leicester and Leicestershire Local Enterprise Partnership, after four years in post. A successor is being sought to replace him at the LLEP.
