Meet the Steering Committee

The IPC Steering Committee is composed of industry leaders and specialists from across the private parking sector. It provides guidance on key issues such as IPC policy, sector-wide challenges, and overall strategy. The Committee was established to ensure a strong focus on representing the IPCs members. The Steering Committee includes the CEO of the IPC, the IPC’s Head of Membership, and the IPC’s Head of Compliance, alongside sector industry leaders. Sitting above the three special interest groups: The AOS Interest Group, The ASP Interest Group, and The Tech Group, the Steering Committee sets the strategic direction, while the special interest groups focus on the finer details.
