Harriet Lamb has resigned as CEO of WRAP to become the CEO of the Green Party of England and Wales, sparking the search for her successor.
Lamb will leave the global environmental action NGO (non-governmental organisation) WRAP at the end of May.
The Chair of WRAP, Sebastian Munden, said Lamb is leaving the organisation on a “strong footing”.
“We are grateful to Harriet for all her work at WRAP and understand her decision to leave reflects a deeply held personal passion,” Munden commented.
“Together, we remain focused on accelerating the growth of the circular economy with all our partners and stakeholders, to make circular living the norm in every boardroom and every home.”
WRAP’s Trustees have appointed executive search consultancy Saxton Bampfylde to lead the search for their new CEO.
Lamb said the role was a great privilege and called the decision to leave extremely difficult.
“However, the chance to be CEO of the Green Party fulfils a lifelong interest,” Lamb said. “WRAP is a special organisation. Its many expert and motivated people will ensure the organisation continues to grow its impact.”
