Lisa Carnwell has joined the Bathroom Manufacturers Association as Communications Manager, while Jane Blakeborough became BMA’s new Research Manager.

Prior to joining the BMA, Carnwell, who replaces Ciara Jagger, spent over twenty years in communications, mainly within the trade press. She has edited various titles covering construction, BIM, health, UK and European government policy, technology, and transport. 

Blakeborough is a familiar face to many in the KBB sector, having founded and ran Trend-Monitor since 2004. By joining the association team in this newly created role, she will bring a new capability to deliver manufacturer members more insights more frequently. 

BMA Chief Executive Tom Reynolds welcomed both new team members: “The Bathroom Manufacturers Association has a small but dedicated secretariat team, determined to deliver for our members. Lisa and Jane are great additions, providing new research capabilities to the association and the ability to deliver our message effectively.”
