Roles and responsibilities

Committee members are expected to contribute actively to the work of the Livery Committee and uphold the standards expected by Common Hall. The core responsibilities include:

• Supporting the Committee’s Objectives
  Contribute to delivering the Committee’s agreed objectives and key tasks, bringing your knowledge, enthusiasm and commitment to the work.
• Attending Committee Meetings
  Participate in the 3–4 Committee meetings held each year. Meetings take place during the working day and typically last between one and two hours.
• Engaging in Sub‑Committees and Working Groups
  Be willing to join Sub‑Committees or Working Groups when detailed consideration of a specific matter is required.
• Participating in the Livery Liaison Scheme
  Maintain regular contact with Clerks or Masters to share information of relevance and gather feedback or issues they wish the Committee to consider. Liaison may take place by phone, email or meetings—whatever is most convenient—and periodic updates should be provided to the Scheme Co‑ordinator or the Committee.
• Contributing to Strategic Review
  Assist in the periodic review and refinement of the Committee’s Strategy and Key Tasks to ensure ongoing relevance and effectiveness.
• Attending Common Hall
  Support Common Hall twice a year, including assisting with the admission of Liverymen to Guildhall and participating in the meeting itself.
• Supporting Committee Events
  Attend selected Committee events for Liverymen and Clerks, including Livery Briefings and other early‑evening engagements.

If you are interested in serving in any of these capacities, please contact your nominating body, or reach out to the Chairman or Deputy Chairman. They would be pleased to meet with prospective nominees, answer questions and provide further insight into what the role involves.
