UCU Scotland executive

The executive consists of one member from each of our branches or local associations, three ordinary members and the current officers. The officers have a two-year term.

Branch representatives

The local representative is usually, but not necessarily, the honorary secretary and is decided by the branch or local association. The officers and three ordinary members of the UCU Scotland executive are decided by a Scotland-wide membership ballot.

The UCU Scotland executive meets bi-monthly during term time and the officers meet between these meetings to discuss decisions of the executive and any urgent matters.
