Governance

Business in Focus Limited is a social enterprise established with the sole purpose of supporting the growth of enterprise.  We are a company limited by guarantee, governed by a Board of Directors.

To achieve our mission we work with a wide range of stakeholders. Our Board of Directors oversees our strategy and operations to ensure that our dealings are in accordance with our regulatory environment, our values and good business practice.

Our Board consists of Non-Executive Directors who are drawn from a wide range of business sectors and work with our organisation in a voluntary capacity (with the exception of our Chief Executive, Katy Chamberlain).

Our Directors meet on a bi-monthly basis providing their extensive knowledge, experience and dedication to ensure our performance and activities meet our mission and strategic objectives.

Our Board has three formal sub-committees:

• Strategy Working Party: which scrutinises our overall strategy and key business decisions
• Audit Working Party: which oversees our financial management and statutory audit
• Remuneration Working Party: which reviews and advises on our reward and remuneration policies and practises.
• Our committees meet at regular intervals to provide recommendations to the Board.
