The Security Institute has announced that from the 24 July 2023 Frank Cannon BSc (Hons), CSyP, CPP, FSyI will be appointed Deputy Chair, to work alongside Julie Nel MA, MSyI and his fellow Board Directors.

Security Institute says Frank “ideally suited”

Blending his academic knowledge with his operational experience, the Security Institute said “Frank is ideally suited to help write the next chapter of The SyI journal, by delivering a proportionate blend of governance, innovation, and humour.”

Commenting on his appointment, Frank said, “For the Chair to consider me as a viable understudy and trust me to represent our wonderful Institute at events that she is unable to attend, is both an honour and a privilege.”

Frank continued: “When standing for election to be a director, I pledged to work tirelessly to promote the merits of the Institute to other industries and collaborate with my peers to create a meaningful experience for our membership; the journey has started and I’m so privileged to work with some fantastic people to deliver.”
