Membership for Organisations
IRRV Organisational Membership is more than just a badge. Organisational members are meeting the
perception of Revenues, Benefits and Valuation professionals in the workplace by giving them a voice and
the confidence to grow in their careers. The Organisation must show they are committed to developing
their people.
The partnership with the IRRV is a clear signal that an Organisation takes their professional
responsibilities seriously and are using resources to develop business-critical skills that provides
genuine career progression. This ensures employees gain access to practical career development tools.
Organisations the IRRV collaborate with, underline the integrity of their activity by signing up to the IRRV
Code of Conduct, confirming their commitment to professionalism and to working in the best interest of
society and clients. Through membership, the Organisation signs a pledge, demonstrating to customers
and the wider community they are committed to upholding professional and ethical standards.
Wherever the Organisation is in its professional membership journey, it is essential to embed IRRV
Organisational Membership into its culture. As with all partnerships, the more put in, the more you
get out. We will ask an Organisation to designate an IRRV coordinator to ensure it gets most from our
collaboration.
An Organisation must share the Institute’s values and ethos and work within the wider field of the
profession. Being an IRRV Organisational Member does not confer a mark of accreditation or approval
by the Institute. Instead, its functions should be seen as more a partnership of mutual support and
encouragement.
A benefit of being an IRRV Organisational member is that we listen to what they have to say and share
ideas with all our members. The IRRV participates in all discussions relating to the Government’s plans
for our areas of professional interest. By belonging to a Professional Body, it gives an Organisation a
direct voice in policy and makes their voice heard.
Our relationship with an IRRV Organisational Member remains within professional boundaries at all
times. It is the IRRV responsibility to make sure an Organisation has the knowledge and skills necessary
to work effectively with clients. The IRRV will work in a fair and inclusive way, promoting justice and
equality of opportunity, challenging any discriminatory or oppressive behaviour or practice.
A checking process will be undertaken by the IRRV before accepting an IRRV Organisational Member.
This includes proof of insurance, the flexibility of contractual terms and conditions, a proper complaints
process and an understanding that the service could be subject to audit. The Organisation must be a
registered and established entity and have a robust privacy policy in place.
In considering an application for IRRV Organisational Membership, we look at the types of products
/ services provided and who receives them (i.e. public and / or private sector). This includes how
an Organisation advertises its products / services and engages with potential clients. Marketing
communications will be reviewed as part of the application process.
Applicants for IRRV Organisational Membership will initially be required to complete an application form.
This will then be considered in line with a procedure agreed by the IRRV National Council. Membership in
