The CIOB said her period in charge included oversight of a 2021 brand refresh, refocusing the CIOB on its 鈥減ublic benefit mission鈥� and supporting the growth of its membership.

Gumble said it had been 鈥渁n honour and a privilege鈥� to serve in the role. 

鈥�2025 is the mid-point for CIOB鈥檚 current 5-year corporate plan, which has been a strong foundation for much of our recent work, and it is also the conclusion of our 190th anniversary celebrations. 

鈥淢y successor will have the chance to shape the next corporate plan and look forward to the Institute鈥檚 200th anniversary 鈥� this seems like a good point at which to hand over the reins.鈥�
