Our representation spans the full breadth of the UHI partnership, working closely with ten Academic Partners to ensure students are supported, included, and empowered wherever

and however they study.

The role of the Chief Executive Officer is to provide strategic support to the student officers within our student-led organisation, and to provide support and leadership to the senior leadership team and our Board of Trustees.

As a key contact and partner with UHI stakeholders, the CEO is required to work towards aligning the Students' Associations' progression into the UHI's strategy. The CEO should also ensure that all aspects of organisational risk are identified, monitored and managed.

  1. Strategic Leadership
  2. Senior Leadership Team (SLT) Management
  3. Operational Management
  4. Student Leadership and Governance
