The Institute of Legal Executives (ILEX) has welcomed Susan Silver as its 48th president and celebrates a 50/50 split of men and women on its council for the first time.

Susan, pictured left, will oversee the continued development of ILEX until July next year. Speaking at her inauguration Susan said: “We are at an exciting time where we continue to gain more and more benefits for our members and more people are realising the importance of organisations like ours.” Helping Susan along the way will also be ILEX’s vice president, Nick Hanning, and deputy vice president Stephen Gowland.
