The Executive Committee is elected annually by the membership and is composed of representatives from all sections of the club. The Committee meets at least every 2 months.
The list of 12 executive members is as follows:-
- President
- Chairman
- Secretary
- Assistant Secretary
- Treasurer
- Captain
- Masters Vice Captain

Club President is an elected executive committee post but is not normally voted annually. Traditionally presidents have fulfilled this post for a number of years before making way for someone else.
In addition the club is required to have a Welfare Officer, whose key role is in safeguarding, and a Safety Advisor. These 2 posts are generally co-opted onto the executive committee.
The club manager is a co-opted post and has been allowed voting rights at the discretion of the executive.
The club (the exec) may also appoint
- Regatta secretary
- Press officer
- Coaching co-ordinator
- Volunteer co-ordinator
- Boat warden
- Social club co-ordinator
These posts are non-executive committee members who may be invited to attend meetings to provide reports.
