Executive Committee (and SIG Chairs/Vice Chairs)

IPUG is run by an executive committee formed from volunteers from the general membership who between them offer a diverse range of skills and experience which we hope benefits the whole membership. The executive welcomes applications for the executive from any member who believes that they can contribute expertise or skills in an area which will add value for general membership. 

Volunteers should recognise that acceptance on to the committee will entail:
  • A commitment of at least one and a half days of their time a month to dealing with IPUG issues. Your employing firm will need to recognise and support you in this.
  • A commitment to attend the monthly executive meetings (generally 2 hours in length)
  • Managing one of the vendor relationships and/or Special Interest Groups on behalf of the membership
  • Other ad hoc duties and tasks as assigned within an executive meeting
