Bob,  Operations Manager sounds like a reasonable thing to do especially the

"Just as an aside we might consider an  ombudsman that could help affiliates

the
RVP Counselor for that  function.  But you really already knew  tha!

Bob,
 
I agree with Rita that Operations Manager sounds reasonable.  
 
As to an "ombudsman" my experience in both industry and volunteer societies 
 is that after appointment there is an initial flurry of complaints brought 
up  with little resolution, followed by benign neglect and the eventual 
fading away  of enthusiasm and any belief in change and then the position dies. 
 I have  seen this time and time again even with top management support.
