Primary Function


The Member Relations Director is a new role designed to enable the Federation to focus more consistently on the needs of members. The role is wide ranging, providing oversight for departments responsible for communications, marketing, research and policy, and the core service of funding member legal claims.


Day-to-day this will mean working with a variety of stakeholders both within the headquarters functions as well as the national and local federation boards and requires a proven ability to deliver on feedback and develop solutions that are viewed as fair, appropriate, and essential. This is a pivotal leadership role for members but also an organisational leader, reporting directly into the Chief Executive Officer.

  • Offer Strategy to Policy and Research: Another key service to members is influencing government policy on policing matters. This can include working with stakeholders such as the pay review body (PRRB), other police representative bodies such as the NPCC, and wider stakeholders such as the College of Policing, the Home Office, amongst others. The work is delivered through the policing policy and research, and police pensions team, which sit within the Member Relations Director’s remit.
  • Offer Strategy to Marketing and Communications: The Member Relations Director will ensure that Marketing and Communications teams align with the overall strategy and are focused on delivering meaningful content and events for members.
  • Inspire Confidence in our Membership: The membership of the PFEW expect the efficient use of their subscriptions and the development and delivery of services they see as important. This role is pivotal in creating the reporting, communications, and relationships that will inspire confidence.
