Committee Nominations
The committee is made up of twelve committee members of which we currently we have eleven including 1 co-opted member.
Co-opted members must nominate themselves for election at the AGM to continue on the committee. We have a further four members who have come to the end of their initial three year term on committee so also must nominate themselves for re-election to continue on the committee.
This, along with one further member who has chosen to stand down, means that we now have seven committee spaces available for election.
If you would like to nominate yourself to stand for election, please email
president@scottishwomeninbusiness.org.uk by 5pm on Monday 14th September. We would particularly like to hear from someone with a financial background.
