After more than 13 years directing the Utah Manufacturers Association (UMA), Todd Bingham, the organization’s president and CEO, has resigned.
The association has announced that Bingham has accepted a position with the Nebraska State Chamber of Commerce and Industry as its new president and CEO. The resignation is effective May 12.
“Bingham has led the Utah Manufacturers Association for more than 13 years, championing the interests of Utah’s manufacturing sector and playing a pivotal role in advancing industry-focused policy and workforce development initiatives,” the association said in its announcement.
“We thank Todd for his leadership, dedication and significant contributions to the Utah manufacturing community,” said Karen Griffin, chair of the UMA board of directors. “His vision and advocacy have left a lasting impact on the industry and the association.”
Megan Ware, currently UMA’s vice president of member affairs, will serve as interim president when Bingham steps away. Ware has been with the organization for approximately four years and has extensive experience in member engagement, strategic planning and organizational leadership.
“We are confident in Megan’s ability to guide UMA through this transition and continue delivering value to our members,” the board said in a statement. “Her deep knowledge of our mission and strong relationships across the industry make her an excellent choice to lead during this interim period.”
