Staff Consultative Committee

The Staff Consultative Committee acts as a forum for discussion for all staff related matters and as a link between the College Council and staff. The Committee discusses employment conditions and the general interests and welfare of staff. Please contact a Staff Consultative Committee representative if you would like to put something forward for discussion.

The College brings things to the Committee when it wants to know what staff think of them, for example, when it is proposing changes to staff rules and regulations. Staff can make suggestions and raise queries via their representatives for discussion by the Committee.

The Committee is made up of the Master (who acts as Chair), two Fellows and six members of staff. The HR Manager acts as Executive Secretary to the Committee.

The staff are divided into three constituencies:

• Grounds & Gardens, Housekeeping, Maintenance and Porters’ Lodge
• Catering, Conference and Accounts
• Administrative, Computing Library and Archives

Two members of staff are elected to represent each of the three sections. Two members of the Committee are elected by its members to represent staff views on College Council. This is an important role since the Members have full voting rights on College Council, which is the main operating body of the College.

The Staff Consultative Committee meets on 15 November 2023, 28 February 2024 and 5 June 2024.

The agenda for the next meeting will be shared here.
