RenewableUK announces new Commercial Director
12 February 2024 - RenewableUK press release
RenewableUK has appointed Liz Conboy as its new Commercial Director to lead the trade association’s business development work.
She will join our team on 2 April, taking over from Vicky Mant who has worked for RenewableUK for five years and has developed our commercial activities extensively.
Liz is currently Head of Venue Sales at Manchester Central and has been a key contact for our events team for several years, working with them on our Global Offshore Wind conferences and exhibitions. She has spent the last ten years at Manchester Central leading the commercial team during a period of rapid growth and development. Prior to this, she worked for a global events company in the energy sector.
RenewableUK’s Chief Executive Dan McGrail said:
“Liz is a truly accomplished commercial leader with a terrific track record, working tirelessly to make Manchester Central a world-class venue. She also has an astute understanding of RenewableUK, having worked closely with us for a decade. I’m sure she will bring great energy and leadership to RenewableUK and help us to expand our commercial activities even further when she hits the ground running in April”.
Liz Conboy said:
“I am delighted to be joining RenewableUK to lead the fantastic commercial team, which is already doing such impressive and important work. I’m equally enthusiastic to return to the energy sector at a pivotal time for the renewable energy industry. I relish the opportunity to champion the activities of RenewableUK’s varied membership base and connect with new partners. I can’t wait to get started!”
