We’re delighted to welcome the new professionals joining the IIRSM Fellowship Assessment Panel – strengthening the diversity, fairness and rigour of our Fellowship process.

Thanks to our Fellowship Assessors, including Paul Vaughan, James Kent, Ronnie Mapanoo, Qadir Mahmood, Kevin Coleman, Mark Greenwood, Robert Jukes, Darren Thompson, Frank Zhou, Martin Woolf, Nelson Rebello, Frazer Lowrie, Syed Niaz Badshah, Lim Jac Fang, Samantha Kendall, Gary Monaghan and Noor Qadeem Khan.

Samantha said: “I am thrilled to be on the fellowship panel and be able to recognise and support senior professionals who have demonstrated significant expertise in managing risk, safety leadership and competence. It enables me to help support a safe and sustainable future for all.”

Paul said: “This role carries a strong sense of responsibility to uphold the credibility and prestige of Fellowship status, through assessing our candidates with fairness and rigour and ensuring that those awarded this distinction truly reflect the values and excellence that IIRSM stands for.

“Personally, it is an opportunity for me to give back to the profession that has undoubtedly helped shape my career, to contribute to the development of future leaders and, through this, help strengthen the impact and reputation of IIRSM within our industry.” 

Qadir said: “I am truly humbled to play a role in shaping the future of our profession, supporting and elevating the next generation of global safety leaders who drive positive change for individuals, organisations and society."

Alongside the new panel, we are working hard to simplify our online Fellowship application process, which includes an option for video submissions.

With this enhanced process, we aim to improve accessibility and support a more diverse range of professionals in applying for IIRSM Fellowship.

We look forward to welcoming the next cohort of Fellows and continuing to shape a profession defined by integrity, leadership and impact.
