Today Rick Green has stepped down after seven years as AIA Chair, handing the reins to David Giles. Rick is retiring after enjoying a 40-year career in the construction industry, latterly as Managing Director of Midland Quarry Products, Heidelberg Materials UK’s Leicestershire-based asphalt and quarrying business. We want to say a huge ‘thank you’ to Rick for all his work as our Chair: over the last seven years, awareness of the AIA and our activities has grown massively, in no small part due to his enthusiasm, passion and commitment to our aims. Now it’s time to enjoy your well-deserved retirement! Mineral Products Association Eurobitume
