The SIF is a democratic, membership-based organisation run according to the Rules last amended in February 1998. In brief, there is a National Council that exercises final power in the running of the SIF. This is elected by (approximately) thirds by the membership at the AGM. At the AGM the members also elect the Officers of the SIF (President, Treasurer and so on). All of these Officers are ex officio members of the Executive Committee.

Immediately following the AGM of the SIF, there is an AGM of the newly confirmed National Council which confirms (or, if necessary, can reject) the Officers just elected by the general membership and which also appoints other office holders to the Executive Committee. It is the Executive Committee that exercises the day-to-day running of the SIF.

The AGM is open to all paid-up Ordinary members and Life members (new ones no longer being created) of the SIF, and also paid-up members of CIPS.
