Board representatives
Young Members Board (YMB) representatives are responsible for bringing the views of Young Members (YMs) from their specific area to the forefront of discussion. The YMB consists of YM representatives from every part of IMechE who share best practice with other YMs from the UK regions, divisions and groups, consultative committees and overseas members. This fusion of YM views at YMB will then form a cohesive vision that represents all YMs at the main Institution Trustee Board meetings. The YMB is an ideal support network for YMs, as it covers such a vast variety of areas.
Below is a list of all positions in the YMB and the current representatives in post. Please make a note of your rep, both region and division, and work with them to strengthen the voice of the Institution's YMs.
