Elections '19: The best job you'll ever have!

The Students' Association is run by a team of elected student officers. Each year, they're up for election, and that's where you come in!

This is the best job you'll ever have.

The three full-time officers each have a remit they work on: our President focuses upon education issues, our VP Activities works towards setting up clubs and societies, and our VP Welfare works with the college to ensure good student mental health and supports our equalities groups.

Nominations are now open for each of those positions and if you're interested, it's really simple to run:

  • It's a matter of filling in a simple webform with your details and the content of your manifesto (why you want people to vote for you)
  • When nominations close, we'll send out info on how to campaign and what the process will involve
  • Voting will run from Monday 4th March until Thursday 7th - you can vote from any computer or mobile device with your college login
  • Results will be announced on Friday 8th March at the results ceremony in the Three Sisters in town

If you're successful, you'll take up your position on the 1st July.
All the posts are paid at £17,500 per year, and you'll be working 35 hours a week.

If you are elected, you will also become a Trustee of the Charity and have some specific duties to help us run the organisation in line with the law and in a way that leaves the organisation in a better place when you leave. Find out more about being a trustee here.
