Hay resigned from his position as Director of Business Development and Communication at Skills for Security in October this year.
The FSA aims to bring together fire and security installers, specialists and systems companies into one trade body. It was launched in January 2007 by the Electrical Contractors’ Association and operates within the Association’s framework.
Steve Kimber, Chairman of the FSA, said: “We are delighted to welcome Stefan to the FSA, where his expertise will no doubt be of enormous benefit to our offering to members and the industry at large in his role as Head of the FSA.”
Kimber added that Hay’s role will be to develop the FSA membership base and act as the focal point of the FSA as the source of advice and guidance for members on all matters concerning the industry, and will work closely with the regional management teams to promote, recruit and retain industry specialists.
Hay said: “I am extremely happy to be joining the FSA at such an exciting time, where so much vital work is underway for the benefit of the future of the fire and security industry. I look forward to rising to the challenge and hope my experience in this field will allow me to deliver positive results.”
Hay’s previous roles include Deputy Chief Executive of the British Security Industry Association (BSIA) and Managing Director of its training subsidiary, the Security Industry Training Organisation (SITO) from 2002, until it was incorporated into Skills for Security.
