Kristina Le Feuvre has been appointed as President of the Jersey Chamber of Commerce, having been voted in at the recent annual general meeting.
Kristina, who runs the aMaizin! Adventure Park in St Peter with her husband, Carlton, will serve a two-year term of office. She is the first female President in the Chambers' near-250-year history and takes over the role from James Filleul.
Prior to setting up the aMaizin! Adventure Park business in 2001, Kristina worked in the financial services industry for ten years in senior management roles.
Speaking at the AGM, she said that with "some difficult decisions" to be faced over the next few years, the Chamber’s hundred or so committee members would need to work together.
"Jersey is going through a difficult time and there are some difficult decisions to be reached," she said. "We need to ensure that the Chamber plays a vital role."
