Catherine David steps up as WRAP CEO

WRAP has appointed Catherine David as its new CEO, and she is due to officially step up to the role on 1 June 2025.

Currently director for behaviour change and business programmes for the NGO, David said: “At WRAP, we are on a mission to embed circular living in every board room and every home, and it is a huge privilege to take on the job of leading the wonderful team as CEO.

“I look forward to working with WRAP’s partners and stakeholders across the world to take action, at a crucial time for our planet and for all of us who call it home.”

David joined WRAP in October 2021, following senior roles at The Fairtrade Foundation and Co-op. A senior leader in the sustainability sector, she is an expert in sustainability and in ethical trade, particularly developing sustainable value chains and improving food and materials systems.

Campaigns

David currently directs WRAP’s business collaboration work across multiple voluntary agreements including The UK Plastics Pact, The Food and Drink Pact and The Textiles Pact, as well as the organisation’s citizen behaviour change programmes Recycle Now and Love Food Hate Waste.

Sebastian Munden, chair of trustees, said: “Catherine has the skills, determination and expertise to lead WRAP at this important time, boosted by her experience of the last three and a half years of change. She will continue to drive our mission, which she helped co-create, to embed Circular Living in every boardroom and every home.”
