The Institute of Business Ethics (IBE) has recently announced the appointment of Dr Ian Peters MBE as their new director, commencing 11 May 2020.

With 30 years of experience running business and professional associations, Ian brings with him significant expertise and an excellent reputation for relationship building, high performance and team leadership.

Ian joins the IBE from the Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA), where he served as chief executive from 2009 and where he led the significant expansion in the work and impact of the IIA. He was previously director of external affairs at the Engineering Employers Federation (EEF) and prior to that deputy director general of the British Chambers of Commerce. He also spent five years as a deputy director at the CBI where he was head of the SME unit.

IBE chair, Professor David Grayson CBE, said: 'I am delighted that Ian will be joining us as director. Ian shares our passion of the IBE being the “go-to place” for practical guidance in how to do business ethically. Personally, I am very much looking forward to working with [him].'

Of his appointment to the IBE, Ian commented: 'I am honoured to have been given the opportunity to lead such a strong team dedicated to helping organisations do business ethically. The IBE has a formidable track record in research, training and knowledge exchange activity across business ethics, and I look forward to help further its important contribution to business.'
