The Zionist Federation of the UK has announced it has appointed Emma Bergen, a six year veteran of UJIA, as its new executive director.
She will replace Arieh Miller in March, who is leaving to be chief executive of the Union of Jewish Students.
ZF chairman Paul Charney said: “Emma is an exceptional young woman who has already achieved a great deal for the community and comes to the ZF with exciting ideas, passion for Zionism and a great aptitude for leadership.
Arieh has certainly made his mark on the ZF and whilst we are of course sad to see him go, this new opportunity leaves us with a real opportunity for the future of the ZF and for the future of the Zionist movement in the UK”.
