But, fundamentally, if you want a well run organisation it is logically inconsistent to think that an organisation should not pay a reasonable (comparable to other similar bodies) salary to its CEO.
On this, there appears to be an interesting piece of information in 'British Canoeing's' AGM minutes that's very relevant to the situation the BMC is about to find itself experiencing. It looks obvious to me that the BMC will split based on this.
Split competitions off and you'll reduce the tiny number of climbers interested in the BMC close to zero, unintended consequences. But what the BMC can offer Josh and Emily down the wall is likely a different question.

Reading it critically (I give engineers a hard time over their written work for a living so I'm well practiced), there were one or two places I'd have liked an extra comma, but on the whole it was perfectly readable. Given that people always complain of the management speak it was also very straightforward.Think of the grammatical atrocities committed by McCarthy: people called him a genius!

I'm also not convinced it includes other items such as a fair apportionment of support staff costs which are shared such as IT, HR, Marketing and Communications or an apportionment of Management costs and expenses such as the CEO attending an IFSC Conference in Salt Lake City.
CFO’s are generally expensive, say 0.5CFO = 0.75-1 ACES officer (supposing you’d get a CFO that P/T). What’s your preference?
Not overspending on the comp budget in the first place. tbh
