Maritime charity Stella Maris has appointed Tim Hill as its new national director and CEO.
Hill has served in the British Army for the last 35 years and was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in 1995.
Effective June 1, he takes over from Martin Foley, who has held the post for the last 13 years and has moved on to be the CEO of Arise, an anti-slavery NGO.
Stella Maris chair, Esteban Pacha, said: “Tim has significant strategic planning and operational delivery expertise. We look forward to his leadership in developing the vital work that Stella Maris currently provides, as we strive to grow and reach more seafarers, fishers, and their families worldwide.
Commenting on his appointment, Hill said: “It is a huge honour to be selected as the CEO for Stella Maris. It is an amazing organisation dedicated to the People of the Sea and their families, I look forward immensely to working with industry partners, supporters and the trustees, staff, and our many wonderful chaplains, ship visitors and volunteers, who work tirelessly in the service of others. I hope that I can play my part in extending Stella Maris’ outreach and support, both nationally and internationally.”
