People:
The Committee focuses on the unique and pressing challenges of attracting and supporting people within the marine contracting industry.
Operations:
The Operations Committee plays a central role in connecting the work of IMCA’s technical committees with the strategic direction of the Association. It provides a forum where technical Committee leaders can share insights, discuss industry priorities, and help ensure that IMCA’s activities remain aligned with the needs of its global membership.
Comprised of the Chairs of IMCA’s technical committees, together with IMCA’s Chief Operating Officer, the Committee serves as an important link between Members and the Board. Through regular meetings, it facilitates two-way communication, enabling Member views and industry concerns to inform strategic decision-making while ensuring Committees remain aligned with IMCA’s objectives.
The Committee is responsible for supporting the development and delivery of Committee workplans, and contributing to the ongoing development of IMCA’s strategy. It also provides guidance to IMCA’s Board and Secretariat on technical matters.
Membership
Our Membership Committee plays a central role in ensuring that Member views are clearly captured, represented, and acted upon, and acts as a key channel for communication back to members, helping to build stronger connections across regions and sectors.
The Membership Committee oversees the work of IMCA’s five Regional Committees, which provide an opportunity for Members – wherever they are based or working – to come together and explore local industry issues with their peers.
Focal and work groups
Specialist groups are formed on a time-limited basis to supplement the work programme of some Committees. These provide opportunities to feed into future guidance, to explore a topic in greater detail, and in some instances welcome contributors from outside IMCA's membership base to share their insights and expertise.
