• GAI Appoints New Chief Exec

New Man at the Helm of GAI

The Guild of Architectural Ironmongers (GAI) has appointed a new Chief Executive. Gary Amer joins the GAI from the National Federation of Builders where he was a Regional Director.

Gary’s previous roles have had a strong commercial bent and the GAI has appointed him to grow the organisation’s membership and create an even more professional, outward-facing organisation.

Gary comments, “My appointment as Chief Executive is a very exciting opportunity for me and I look forward to building on the recent developments within the GAI to provide a platform for continuous development and further successes. It is clear to me already that there is genuine passion and dedication to the Guild. I am keen to understand the needs of the membership and intend to meet with as many members as possible. It is important to keep raising the bar on the internal and external profile of the AI sector.”

Gary, 50, is married with two grown up children. He lives in Buckinghamshire and enjoys golf and football having managed and coached a local football club. He also likes entertaining and DIY.

Gary took up his new role in mid-February and will be based at the GAI’s HQ in Stepney Green in East London.
