President
Hi! My name is Hans Fredrik and I’m your JCR President. I represent students’ interests within the College and the University, and work with the Committee to support and run the JCR. Please feel free to get in touch regarding any questions, concerns or suggestions!
Secretary
Hi everyone! My name is Joakim and I'm your Secretary and Vice President. Broadly, my role is to enable the rest of the committee to fulfil their responsibilities seamlessly by ensuring that all administrative matters are ironed out. I also serve as the bridge between the Committee and the wider college, whether through the weekly blasts or the college WhatsApp group. If you do have any queries or suggestions feel free to contact me via email or in person. I look forward to seeing you all around college!
Treasurer
Hello, I’m Ryan! As Treasurer, my role is to ensure that the rest of the committee and societies in our college have the financial means to contribute positively to college life. Other responsibilities include drafting the termly budget, handling reimbursements, and keeping an eye on anything money-related the JCR does.
Social Secretaries
Hello, we are Marco and Chloe. As your Social Secretaries it is our job to organise a range of communal activities across term, from special dinners celebrating national holidays to formal swaps with other colleges. Our most vital events are college ‘Big Organised Parties’ (BOPs) and the termly JCR guestnight.
Bar Managers
Hey, we're Sam and Ben, and we're your Bar Managers. The bar is open after every formal (Mon & Wed), plus regular bops and special events, so come and join us for a drink at an unbeatable price. We're here to bring the vibes, fix you up with dou-dou shots, and to make sure the JCR and bar are always an inclusive, welcoming place to be.
IT Officer
Hi everyone, I’m Ansel. As your IT officer, my main role is to maintain the JCR’s tech infrastructure, including this very website! I’m also called upon whenever the JCR requires assistance in setting up and maintaining any new tech-related projects, and when the option for remote participation is needed for any JCR meetings/hustings.
If you’re ever in need of IT-related help, or if you have any suggestions for the website, please do not hesitate to come and find me! I’ve usually got my hands full with Engineering, but I’ll always take time out to lend a hand.
