Seafood Scotland, the national trade and marketing body for Scottish seafood, has created a new key role as it works to promote the industry around the globe and at home.
Jeni Adamson has been appointed Industry Engagement Manager with the organisation. She joins Seafood Scotland after six years working for Lantra, an awarding body improving skills and opportunities in the land-based and environment sector.
With a degree in Marine Biology and a masters in Estuarine & Coastal Science, Adamson has strong industry knowledge. She held a number of roles for Lantra, including engagement lead for aquaculture where she pursued effective partnerships within the industry in Scotland, and contributed to the outcomes of the Aquaculture Skills Steering Group.
