Orchestral Managers – Jessica Yuen, Edward King, William Stanger
The Managers are all current members of the orchestra, responsible for several administrative tasks, and, most importantly, ensuring the general wellbeing of players. They act as a bridge between the committee and the orchestra, and are usually the first port of call for any questions players may have.
