Longtime European risk management group head stepping down

The Federation of European Risk Management Associations’ executive director, Florence Bindelle, will leave the European risk management group in October, FERMA said Friday.

Ms. Bindelle would leave following this year’s FERMA Risk Management Forum “to pursue an exciting new career opportunity,” FERMA said in a statement.

Ms. Bindelle said in an email that she could not disclose the identity of her future employer because of confidentiality.

Ms. Bindelle joined FERMA 16 years ago and was its first full-time employee. She will remain at the head of the team planning the group’s forum for Oct. 4-7 in Venice, Italy, FERMA said in the statement.

“Over the next four months, the board of FERMA will consider the future of the role as part of its strategic plans,” according to the statement.
