Senior Governor
The role is like that of the Chair of the institution and is responsible for the overall leadership and effectiveness of the University Court. The Senior Governor must ensure that Court conducts its business in an effective and efficient manner, with due regard to statutory, legal, and compliance responsibilities. The role is central to ensuring that Court operates with clarity of purpose, strong governance discipline, and appropriate engagement with the University community, thereby supporting the institution’s long‑term sustainability, academic mission, and public accountability with a strong sense of place and connection to the University’s role in the Northeast of Scotland.
