Doug Grieve

Charles Douglas Grieve (27 April 1927 – December 1996) was a Scottish trade unionist.

Born in Partick, Grieve worked at the Mitchell factory in Glasgow. He joined the Tobacco Workers' Union (TWU), and was appointed to the joint post of national organiser and financial secretary. In October 1969, he succeeded Charles Butler as the union's general secretary.

In 1973, Grieve was elected to the General Council of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), on which he was part of a left-wing group, including Rodney Bickerstaffe, Ken Cameron, Bill Keys, Alan Sapper and Jim Slater. In 1981, he won election as chair of the Trades Councils Joint Consultative Committee,

With the decline in tobacco-related employment in the UK, Grieve negotiated the merger of the TWU into the Technical, Administrative and Supervisory Section; once this was completed, in 1986, he retired.
