LeadLUU nominations are now open!
With brand-new positions opening this year, and a complete restructuring of the system, we are so excited for what this year’s elections hold.
But what will these positions look like?
Let’s take a look at the Student Executives, and what these Student Leaders will do.
The role of a full-time Trustee Officer is incomparable to anything else.
Each position forms part of a team that works together to represent students on every level. From engagement with students, making change at the Trustee Board of the Union, and influencing across campus, Leeds, and the rest of the country!
It’s so easy to apply.
You must be a current student at the University of Leeds (in any year of study), and if elected, you must treat the programme like a graduate scheme or sabbatical from university.
You must feel as though you have something to input, keep or change about your union, and a passion for leadership, student wellbeing, and outreach.
There are 6 executive positions available, 5 full-time, and 1 voluntary.
These positions are all essential to the structure of LUU, and inform almost every decision made by the charity.
