Regional Secretary Designate
I am delighted to introduce you to SERTUC’s next Regional Secretary:
Sam Gurney is currently acting head of the TUC’s Equality and Strategy department. Previous roles at the TUC include Senior Strategy and Development Officer and Policy Officer in the International Department. He was a member of the Governing Body of the UN International Labour Organisation 2009-2017.
Before he joined the TUC in 2003 he was a Regional Organiser for GMB London Region and an Assistant National Organiser at Connect. He studied at the School of African and Asian Studies at the University of Sussex (where he was also president of the student union 1995-96) and then the Centre for Research in Ethnic Relations at the University of Warwick.
He was born in Paddington, brought up in North Kensington and now lives in Walthamstow, East London.
Sam will take over on 1 January and I know he will maintain and develop the progressive work we have engaged in in SERTUC over the last many years! You can contact Sam on sgurney@tuc.org.uk
