Working Group - Communications
This group is responsible for the communication strategy for the whole HAUC (UK) Community.
This focuses on three main areas:
- Agreeing and prioritising the publication of legislative updates and guidance
- Using the most appropriate distribution medium and focusing on members preferences
- Showcasing industry achievements especially innovation, best practice and working groups activities across the sectors
The HAUC (UK) Communications Manager will liaise with all 4 nations to ensure communications are appropriate, useful and current. The website will regularly be updated and have a useful FAQ section as well as links to all current legislative documents and codes of practice.
This group will evolve with the needs and requirements of our members and strive to deliver future communications using technology as appropriate.

Julie Payne
In March 2024 I retired from SSEN after almost 36 years. For the past 9 years of my career I held the post of Street works Manager and prior to this I was the Street works admin manager for 11 years. I remain secretary of SWHAUC and HAUC (UK) and part of the Street works convention committee. I was Co-chair of the HAUC (UK) performance group, a member of the SWUK Operations EPG group and a member of the ENA but have now resigned these positions so I can concentrate on my part time role of HAUC (UK) Communications Manager. I am proud to continue to serve the wider Street works community where my role primarily involves updating the HAUC(UK) website, HAUC (UK) Linked-In site as well as many other admin related tasks. I am also part of the HAUC App focus group looking at new development.
