Becoming a Governor

Leeds Beckett is always interested to hear from people who are interested in becoming a governor. It is important that our Board of Governors membership represents all sections of our university community.

Our governors have an important statutory function to perform. Our “Statement of Primary Responsibilities” document should be read in conjunction with guides published by external agencies such as the Committee of University Chairs (CUC) and the Office for Students (OfS).

If you would like to express an interest in becoming a governor, or would like some further information, please contact the Secretariat team:
