Our Chamber is respected far and wide for best practice and this is due in no small measure to the talent and application of Janice Tracey.
During her time as CEO, Janice has been the ‘Voice of Business’ in the North West representing the interests of the City Region with Government Departments and global businesses at home and abroad. She led the organisation through a remarkable period of growth. Janice was awarded the OBE, in the New Years Honours list 2007 for services to the Economy and Education.
