SWEI is recruiting
Come join our team!
In SWEI, we have a lot of different roles within our team. You can read about them down below. If you become part of our team, we will discuss together with you what position is best suited for you. You can get a specific position within the team, but next to that, you still get the chance to manage, plan and organize events next to your assigned role within the team. Outside of event planning, we have weekly meetings, which take two hours per week. We try to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere in our organisation, not just doing only business, but also having fun together and talking about topics of our interest.
Overview
As overview, you are the head of SWEI and ensure that meetings go smoothly. While SWEI is non-hierarchical and every decision is made by the whole team, the overview position helps in leading the vision of SWEI. This position could be considered the equivalent of chair in a traditional association. If you are a visionary and looking to lead SWEI for the upcoming year, this position is for you!

Treasurer
As a treasurer, you take care of everything financial within SWEI. This entails keeping track of expenses, but also setting up a budget together with the overview person on where to allocate the money for workshops. You report your budget to the team.
