Stacey has been working in the building controls and BEMS sector for over 20 years, starting her career at Sontay in 2001 as a Customer Service Advisor. As she has worked her way up through the ranks Stacey has built long lasting relationships with many of Sontay’s customers and made a real impact on the industry. The knowledge and insight learned over the years has given Stacey a brilliant knowledge base and high level of technical understanding of the building controls sector which has already served her well in position as Vice-President, a role she took on in November 2022.

Reflecting on his two years as President Graeme Rees said: “These last two years have been extremely rewarding both on a professional and a personal level. I would like to thank everybody who has supported, guided and helped me move the BCIA forward in a number of areas. I have been very proud to serve as President and I am delighted to now hand over to Stacey and wish her the very best of luck in this extremely prestigious role.”

Commenting on her appointment Stacey said: “It is a real honour to be taking over the role of BCIA President from Graeme Rees who has done a fantastic job in increasing member engagement and setting us onto a clear path as an organisation carrying recognition, respect and influence in the building controls industry. Over the next two years I aim to continue the good work carried out by my predecessors and I am relishing the opportunity.”
