Women in Property make new appointment in Scotland
The Northern Scotland branch of Women in Property (WiP) has announced the appointment of a new Chairperson. Rhona MacLean, an Associate at Raeburn Christie Clark and Wallace, is taking over from ASM Director Isobel Maughan who is stepping down after her year in the role.
WiP was founded in 1987, has over 1500 members representing every profession in property and construction. Rhona has been an Associate at Raeburn Christie Clark and Wallace for 18 months, joining the expanding property division, having worked in the property industry since 1997 and was formerly a partner at another Aberdeen based firm.
Rhona MacLean said: "It is with great pleasure that I have accepted this role and I look forward to the year ahead with WiP. Isobel has achieved a great deal in her year as Chairperson - from building contacts with our sister organisation, CREW, in Houston to ensuring the Northern branch celebrated its 20th birthday with a number of special events.
"WiP provides an opportunity for women in the property sector to network and do business with each other, to develop professional skills to address the changing needs of the industry and to identify new talent to bring fresh perspectives to the table. I am looking forward to continuing the good work that Isobel has carried out and being part of WiP's success in 2008."
The Northern branch of WiP has a steadily growing membership of professional women, from a diverse field of disciplines, including surveying, architecture, town planning, law, landscape, interior design, construction and engineering. The organisation aims to address the issues of skills shortages in the industry by growing the networks within the wider property sector and giving skilled, competent and creative individuals the opportunity to meet.
