Our Organisation

Comms Council UK is steered by an elected board or “Council” which currently comprises of 12 individuals who have been nominated by individual member companies and voted in by the whole membership.

The key areas of work of Comms Council UK are then undertaken by working groups and other ad-hoc working groups for specific projects.

The working groups are:

  • The Industry Developments Working Group – focussed on regulatory and policy challenges
  • The Operations Group – focussed on standards, technical issues and best practice initiatives
  • The Women in Telecoms – focussed on women working in our industry

The ad-hoc working groups are set up to focus on specific issues (such as PSTN switch off, net neutrality, porting or mobile number ranges) that need prioritising for a certain period of time. These groups work into one of the standing working groups.

Council and the working groups are supported by a Secretariat which is responsible for the day-to-day running of the organisation.
