Sue brings a wealth of experience in commercial shipping operations and international business, having served in senior management and advisory roles for both public and private companies for more than 20 years. She held a variety of roles during nearly 13 years at P&O Ferries and prior to that was operations director for Luton Airport at a time of unprecedented growth following the launch of easyJet.

Sue currently serves as a non-executive director of BMT Group Ltd, Medway NHS Foundation Trust and Logistics UK.

“We are delighted to welcome Sue to the PLA,” said PLA chairman, Christopher Rodrigues. “She will bring a breadth and diversity of experience to the PLA as we work to support all our stakeholders in the time of COVID-19 and deliver our longer-term responsibilities as Custodians of the Tidal Thames.

“At the same time, we say farewell and thank you to Helen Deeble for her commitment to, and enthusiasm for, our organisation.”

Sue Mackenzie’s early career was spent in military service and not-for-profit sectors both within and outside the UK. After leaving the Army, Sue spent time as chief executive of charity Cities in Schools (CiS), which ran partnership programmes between business and the community to provide education, training and support to disadvantaged young people.

She has degrees in Agricultural Science and Emergency Planning Management and has completed the General Management Programme at Harvard Business School. Sue continues to work voluntarily in support of her fellow servicemen and women and is involved as a trustee and/or volunteer of several charities in the UK.
