RSCM NZ President Paul Ellis leads a voluntary team of 14 Councillors who meet periodically in person and often by means of teleconference. In addition, governance of this vital charitable organisation is effected through the 5 Branch NZ branches with their own group of volunteers and members who perform key roles in the National Office.

The RSCM also offers, like other international music examining entities, graded music examinations and qualifications, including university equivalent and recognised degrees relating to the special skills that are part of being an RSCM chorister and music leader.
