The International Foundation for Aids to Navigation (IFAN) has a new chairman, former BP Shipping head Guy Mason.

He was appointed at a board meeting in Bahrain, replacing Alan Marsh, former CEO of London broker Braemar, who steps down after three years as chairman of the UK charity.

Mason joined the IFAN board in March this year, having retired from BP at the end of 2020 as senior vice president and global head of shipping.
