Strath Union is an organisation dedicated to supporting students throughout their years at university and beyond.
This opportunity is ongoing, with no end date. Closing date for applications is 27 May.
We have one student vacancy to join the Strathclyde Students' Union Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees is responsible for setting the vision and values of the organisation and for ensuring the delivery of our strategic plan and overseeing the finances and governance of the Union.
The Trustees ensure the development of, and agree, a long-term strategy and approve and monitor plans to deliver the strategy. The Trustees are ultimately responsible, individually and collectively, for all activity within Strathclyde Students’ Union.
As the top Student Union in Scotland and one of the top 10 in the UK we are on a quest to deliver the very best student experience and unique opportunities to our 25,000 members! We need a strong and diverse student voice to support our governance and are looking for students from across Strathclyde University – undergraduates through to postgraduates!
The expected commitment is approximately one day per month and this would constitute up to six board meetings per annum (including at least one away day). There are also sub-committees of the Board, including Finance, Audit and Risk Committee. In addition, there may be other ad-hoc elements where trustees can be involved, including short-life working groups, playing an ambassadorial role and attending functions and events in their capacity as a Trustee.
Strathclyde Students’ Union is committed to promoting diversity and equality for all and welcomes applications from candidates of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from trustees with disabilities, from ethnic minority backgrounds, and those with diverse sexualities or marginalised gender identities as these groups are underrepresented.
Closing date for applications is midnight on Monday 27th May. Please register your interest well in advance of this date - you will receive information about the application process via email.
Short-listed candidates will be invited to interview either w/c 27 May or 3 June.
The successful candidate should be able to attend the next Strath Union Board meeting on Friday 7th June 2024 from 2pm – 5pm.
