Lijkt dit je een interessante uitdaging, stuur dan je cv en motivatie naar info[at]sib-utrecht.nl. Graag horen wij in welke twee (of meer) functies je geïnteresseerd bent.

President

As President you take the lead in indicating the path that the Board takes and you keep an eye on whether this is the desired direction. In addition, you ensure that your Board members remain motivated and receive guidance if necessary. As President you provide direction and you are there for Board members to fall back on. It is important that you can keep a good overview, are stress resistant and are full of enthusiasm.

As President you are also the face and main point of contact of SIB, for example at Uglobe, to UU and HU and the government. For that you have to be representative. Assertiveness is an advantage, but not a necessity.

Duties of the President include:

• Preparing and leading Board meetings and General Member Assemblies
• Guarantee the housing of the association
• Supporting and motivating fellow Board members
• Being a leader in writing policy and the annual report
• Representing the association

Another important task is to keep records and streamline knowledge preservation. This includes, for example, taking minutes at Board meetings and the GMA’s

As a Secretary you are above all a general Board member. This means that you have a lot of time to support your Board members, for example by selecting a haphop location for the Commissioner of Internal Affairs.

Duties of the Secretary include:

• Maintaining the news provision (website, eSIB, other mails)

Secondly, the Treasurer ensures accurate recording of what money has been spent on, by keeping the accounts. In this respect it is important that you can work accurately and understand what numbers are. Other tasks include collecting money, sending and paying invoices and keeping up with dash lists.
