Operations Group

Reporting to the Board is our Operations Group, the sole working group within Southside BID. This group focusses on the practical delivery of our key projects and initiatives, in line with the strategy set out by the Board. The Operations Group is chaired by a Board Director and includes volunteers from local businesses, partners from relevant public sector organisations, and members of the Southside BID Team.

We are always eager to collaborate with individuals who want to contribute to achieving the goals outlined in our Business Plan. If you are interested in joining the Operations Group, Please get in touch with

How can I become a Board Director?

On occasion, spaces become available for people to join our Board.  Eligibility to apply to fill a vacancy depends on the type of vacancy; for example, only people from the Chinese sector can apply to fill a vacancy created by a person from the Chinese sector leaving the Board.  Board Directors will usually need to have been on a Working Group. When we have a vacancy, it will be advertised through our news letter. Applicants will be required to submit their application via email. A recruitment process is then undertaken by the Board’s Nominations Committee. If suitable candidates are identified, the Committee will recommend these candidates to Board for appointment. Directors will then be appointed by majority vote.

Our Director appointment Policy can be found here.
