BAG Board Elections 2022- Call for Nominations

We are approaching the time for Elections to the Board of the British Aviation Group, and I would like to invite nominations for candidates from across the membership.

The BAG Board sets the strategy and works with the BAG Secretariat to drive BAG activities forward, ensuring that BAG represents and serves the requirements of its members. Participation on the Board offers a unique opportunity to help promote the interests of the membership and wider supply chain – whilst providing tremendous scope for professional and personal development.

A rolling programme of elections is used so that approximately a third of the Board is subject to election each year. As a consequence, there are five places open for election this year. Please find attached a list of the current Board; those members whose terms will end in September (and may choose to stand for re-election) are highlighted in red.

The British Aviation Group is committed to being a diverse and inclusive organisation, which reflects the communities and society in which we serve. We will champion inclusion and embed best practice in all we do, sharing learning and knowledge with our members. We will demonstrate inclusive leadership and work with our members to promote exemplary levels of diversity and inclusion, safeguarding BAG and the aviation industry into the future.

BAG Summer Seminar & BBQ *Presentations available* 


On the 30 June 2022, BAG and Pinsent Masons hosted the BAG & Pinsent Masons Summer Seminar & BBQ. We came together to provide members with updates on key topics affecting the airports and aviation sector and the BBQ was an opportunity for networking to take place between members, their guests and other organisations active in the industry. We would like to thank our guest speakers for their time and commitment to the seminar! You can find the presentations of the event here.

BAG Business Intelligence Update


BAG’s Business Intelligence and Strategic Relationship Working Groups come together regularly to try and collect as much intelligence as they can to gather on what is happening in the market, both now and how things change as we the sector recovers and rebuilds.

This document focuses on two key topics:
- What’s happening at UK airports
- What’s happing in the International markets, particularly in the priority markets we set for this year in discussion with DIT. Based on what we learn should we be resetting those priorities or focussing on other opportunities

You can find the documents here.
