What is your kind of SofA?






SofA will be holding our AGM next Wednesday the 23rd of September. It is vital that as many members as possible attend and get involved in SofA. All of the SofA committee positions will be up for grabs. To help you decide which you would be best suited to we have described all vacant positions below:

President: The president is the public face of SofA, it is the president’s job to engage speakers and to plan events for the SofA calendar. It is also the president’s job to greet and ensure SofA’s guests are happy. A strong president is vital to drive a strong committee.

Vice President/ Sectary: The main role of the VP is to support the President, however the VP must also act as Sectary to SofA, taking minutes at meetings and recording them for the budget.

Treasurer: The treasurer as you might expect must take care of SofA’s financial affairs and is in the main responsible for submitting the budget to clubs and socs at the end of the year.

Events Officer: The events officer must take care of everything surrounding an event, such as setting up the venue, booking hotels for guests and providing refreshments at the events.

PRO: The pro is responsible for letting all the SofA members know about what is going on in the world of SofA, this includes our blog, posters and emails.

Membership Office: The membership office must regularly update the Gmail contacts and also keep a record of all members in the membership excel.

Trips Officer: The trips officer is a new position this year, the trips officer will be in charge of organising our trip abroad and also assisting the events officer with trips within the country.

There are also a number of places for general committee members who help with postering, events, trips and big ideas!
At the meeting all nominations must be seconded and anyone who runs uncontested shall be deemed elected, in the case of more than one person running for a position a ballot of those present will decide.

So please come along and let us know what is your kind of SofA!
