The Executive Committee of the IF is elected annually by the IF and comprises: 

• The chairperson, deputy chairperson and secretary. Candidates are nominated and seconded by way of a nomination form which must be accompanied by a mission statement. Nominations are circulated to members in time and people in these three positions are then elected at an IF meeting by way of written ballot papers.
  

• One member from each of the sectors: Management and Governance, Staff, Student and Community appointed by fellow members within their own sector.
