Ruth MacLeod

Chair

Ruth is Senior Manager, Archives & Library at Royal Museums Greenwich, and has previously worked across higher education, local authority and media archives.  Ruth has been a member of ARA since 2005 and a Registered member since 2013 and in addition to being on the ARA Board is a mentor and an assessor for the ARA CPD scheme. She was a recruited member of the Archives Service Accreditation Committee from 2013 to 2019 and is keen to use this experience of looking at archives services in thinking about how record-keeping professionals can develop themselves and how the ARA can help, as well as how ARA itself can improve. 

Outside of archives, Ruth is very slowly working on achieving her next kickboxing belt but is easily diverted by fiction and cocktails
