PURPOSE

The principal role of the Chair of the Board is to manage and to provide leadership to the UKTram Board.

The Chairman is accountable to the Board and will act as a direct liaison between the Board and the management of the Company, through the Managing Director. The Chair acts as the communicator for Board decisions to the organisations membership. The Chair must have the ability to influence and represent the work of UKTram with senior stakeholders including the Minister, politicians, senior officials, and industry representatives and other regulators.

The concept of separation of the role of the Chair from that of the Managing Director implies that the Chair should be independent from management and free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could interfere with the Chair’s independent judgment other than interests resulting from Company shareholdings and remuneration.
