Phil has been a member of the Credit Union for several years and also serves as a Board Member for a Housing Association in Edinburgh. He has recently started acting as the Secretary of the Credit Union.

In his day job, Phil is a Senior Governance Officer at Heriot-Watt University, which involves supporting senior leaders in preparing for meetings; taking minutes; preparing agendas and chasing up actions. A bit like his role for First Scottish!
