CPI Elects Oldham VP/President Elect

The Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI), U.K., CPI this week announced that it has elected Will Oldham VP/president elect, in advance of assuming the role of president later this year. Oldham has worked for paper manufacturer UPM UK since his appointment as GM UK, in June 2008. He joined the CPI Council in September 2008, taking over from Kevin Lyden OBE, former managing director at UPM UK.

Oldham brings considerable industry knowledge and experience to CPI, having previously held the positions of business GM and sales and marketing director at International Paper's European Division. Prior to that, he was managing director for Scholastic Book Fairs UK, and held senior roles with the Robert Horne Group.

The current president of CPI, Bob McLellan, is set to retire at the end of 2011. McLellan joined CPI Council in June 2003 and became CPI president in October 2008, taking over from Kevin Lyden.
