Correction: The Secretary of the Board is now the General Counsel, a staff member. Therefore, the Secretary should not be substituting for the Board Chair in the Chair's absence. I am therefore deleting this responsibility.

As of the 2012 revision to the bylaws, the secretary is usually a Wikimedia Foundation staff member. Currently, the position is held by Geoff Brigham, General Counsel.

The duties of the secretary are to:

  • maintain all board records and ensure their accuracy and safety;
  • review board minutes (which implies assisting to all board meetings);
  • ensure that all notices are duly given in accordance with the provisions of the bylaws or as required by law; and
  • perform all duties of the office of the Executive Secretary and such other duties as may be assigned by the Chair or the Board of Trustees.
