There are a couple of vacancies on the Staff Consultative Forum, in addition to a number of elected Staff Consultative Forum representatives whose term is coming to an end in December. We would therefore like to invite nominations for the following constituent posts:
- Administrative, Specialist & Managerial x 1
- Enterprise (including F&D, Retail & Admissions) x 2
- Historic Characters x 2
The Forum plays a key communication and discussion role in many significant matters affecting all colleagues across the Museum.
If you would like to be considered as a Staff Consultative Forum Representative, you will need a colleague from the same constituency as you to propose your nomination and the name of another colleague, again within the same constituency, who seconds the nomination.
The closing date for nominations is this Sunday, 3 December 2023. Elections will be held following this date if we have multiple candidates for a single role.
To put yourself forward, please complete and return a nomination form to the People & Culture team (based at Canalside) either by hand, by depositing in the black post box outside of the People & Culture office, or via email to [email protected].
All employees are eligible to apply, with the exception of the Leadership Team. Casual Workers may only apply to represent, propose or second a nomination for the Casual Worker constituency.
As a reminder, the current Staff Consultative Form Representatives are:
| Constituency | Staff representative(s) |
| Administrative, Specialist & Managerial | Joe Whitehouse*
Lisa Bate |
| Enterprise (F&D, Admissions, Retail) | Carla Jasper*
Vacancy x 1 |
| Historic Characters | Greg Dunn*
Sarah Bradbury Vacancy x 1 |
| Maintenance | Tracey Power |
| Casuals | David Ball

| *First term coming to an end therefore constituent post up for nomination. | |
Under the terms of the Staff Consultative Forum Constitution, representatives can stand for two terms. Current representatives who are reaching the end of their first term and would like to stand for another term will be required to complete the usual nomination process and will be subject to election if necessary.
