Board of Trustees

IWF is managed by a single Board of 10 members, comprising six independent members, three industry members, and an independent Chair.  Eve Salomon is Chair of the IWF Board.
 
The role of the Board is to monitor and review IWF’s remit, strategy, policy and budget in order to enable the IWF to achieve its objectives.
 
Industry members are chosen by the Funding Council through a procedure which is determined by the Council.
 
The independent members are chosen by an open selection procedure managed by a sub-committee of the Board, usually the Board Executive Committee, comprising the Chair, representation from both industry and independent Board membership, and an independent person from outside the Board.
 
Board member appointments are subject to IWF vetting policy and their responsibilities are described in a Board Members' Handbook
 
Board Members' are required to notify the Chief Executive within one month of their appointment of any financial interests that could reasonably be regarded as relevant to the work of IWF, see register of financial interests
