The Presidium is the foremost elected, political body of IFM-SEI. Headed by the President, the Presidium takes charge of overseeing the development and execution of the strategic work plan, pinpointing educational and political priorities, and supervising the finances of IFM-SEI. The structure of the Presidium includes the President, Vice President, and one representative from each region. Within the regional representation, there must be at least one non-man and one person under 30. Additionally, the Secretary General is a part of the Presidium.

The Control Commission consists of three people and is responsible for the financial control of the organisation – including checking the books and finances of IFM-SEI – and ensuring compliance with the IFM-SEI Constitution and Rules of Procedure.

The Secretariat stands as the operational epicenter of IFM-SEI and has its base in Brussels. While the core team traditionally includes the Office Manager and a long-term volunteer, additional personnel such as Project Officers, office secretary, or other volunteers might also be incorporated, depending on the organisation’s needs. The Secretariat is entrusted with overseeing the daily operations and coordination of the office, implementing the strategic work plan, and managing the working groups.
