As ICR has a legal status of "a company limited by guarantee" it is managed by a Board of Directors.
The duties and responsibilities of the directors are extensive but basically their role is to manage the company on behalf of its members, to comply with company law and the law in other areas and to ensure the company operates within the constraints of the Memorandum and Articles of Association.
Any MICR or FICR Member of the Institute is eligible to sit on the Board. Being a Board member is voluntary (i.e. unpaid), and members all mix service on the Board with their ‘day jobs’. ICR is consequently indebted to those companies who support members of their staff who volunteer for service.
The Board meets around six times per year plus once specifically to discuss strategy but have a responsibility to advise and assist when other unexpected issues arise.
Board Members serve for a maximum of six years and can either be nominated by another full member, or self-nominate; in either case, though, nomination must be seconded by another voting member.
If you could be interested in joining the Board but would like more information please contact us. The list below details the length of service of our current members.
