He has been involved in the CIMA network, and was appointed to council in 2001.
"CIMA is entering into a joint venture with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), which will raise the profile of the profession and be a passport for careers throughout the world. I am keen to further enhance the institute's relevance and reputation by forging strong partnerships and working relationships both within the institute and externally," said Baird.
"It has truly never been a better time to be a management accountant."
Practice accountant Gulzari Babber has been elected deputy president, while consulting expert Malcolm Furber was elected vice president.
