BNT Appoints Bill Zuill As New Executive Director

The Bermuda National Trust has appointed Bill Zuill as its new Executive Director. Mr Zuill succeeds Jennifer Gray, who stepped down in July after nine years in the post to pursue other interests.

BNT President Lt Col William White said Mr Zuill had been appointed after an extensive search which attracted a number of very strong applicants.

Lt Col White said: “We are delighted that Bill has agreed to join the Trust.  We are very grateful to Jennifer for her dedicated service to the Trust and believe Bill will build on her great work.

“The Council of the Trust looks forward to working with Bill to continue the Trust’s mission of conserving and raising awareness of Bermuda’s built and natural heritage including its beautiful open spaces.  We have no doubt he will continue with the work to preserve what makes Bermuda special.”

Mr Zuill has spent the last three and a half years working with his wife in their Queen Management Services group of companies, including Bermuda Executive Services Ltd, Atlantic Caregiving Ltd and Island Shippers.

Mr Zuill said: “I am deeply honoured to have been selected for this important role. In some ways, this role means that I am coming home as I feel that I grew up with the Trust since my father was Director 1972 until the early 1990s and I spent a lot of time on Trust properties.

“Ever since I have had a great passion for Bermuda’s history and environment and look forward to utilising my experience as a journalist and as a manager to make the Trust an even better organisation than it is today.”

Mr Zuill holds a BA in history from Tufts University and worked as a journalist at The Royal Gazette from 1986 until 2012, serving as Editor from 1998. He is married to Dawn Zuill and they have a 14-year-old son.
