Opportunities to become a student leader
It’s an exciting time at East London Students’ Union: we’re on the lookout for our new team of student officers.
Our student leaders are the voice of the student community. As elected representatives, they work on behalf of students at all levels, advocating for change in the University and working tirelessly to make the student experience the best it can be.
There’s no single type of person who makes a good student leader. The most effective student officer team is one full of diverse backgrounds and perspectives.
The main thing you need is the desire to make things better for students and the drive to get stuff done. If you’re successful, we’ll train you up and help you develop the skills and experience you need to thrive as a student leader and beyond.
This year we’re shaking up what our election looks like, making the elected team more representative than ever. If you’ve ever felt unrepresented by our student leaders, this could be your time to shine. You can find details below of what’s changing.
Becoming a student officer is an incredible opportunity for passionate people to make a difference for their student community and career prospects alike. See if you could reach your potential and apply today.

School representatives will be selected soon in a different process. Look out for further detail.
