Election Officers (2 vacancies)

The role of the Chief Electoral Officers will be to organise the elections as per the bylaws. Most of the work is around the annual election that occurs between late January and early March, but they are also responsible for any by-elections that may be held during the year. The work includes accepting the nominations, arranging for members to scrutiny, arranging and setting up tables for voting, and alongside the executive, communicating the details of the elections to the membership. While the nature of the work is limited, members interested in this position should expect to commit a significant chunk of time in late February and in early March.

Current members of the executive are ineligible for these positions. Additionally, election officers may not run for executive positions in the election for which they serve. Interested candidates should an email to cupe3903chairperson@gmail.com.

Honorarium: $750 per year per position, plus and additional $150 per by-election.
