We are privileged to be led and guided by some of Orthodox Jewry’s most learned, dynamic and internationally-recognised Rabbonim and Dayonim. As Rov of the Federation and Av Beis Din, Rav Zimmerman sets the standard of our halachic authority and guides the organisation to ensure that we uphold the very highest standards of halacha. Previously the Rov of Gateshead, he is well known as the ‘Rabbi’s Rabbi’, giving guidance to communal leaders across the world.
