The UCAA is looking for a new Treasurer! Are you an enthusiastic alumnus/alumna who wishes to remain involved with the UCU alumni community? Read on! The UCAA board is responsible for representing alumni affairs on campus and tries to ensure the maintenance of an active alumni network through reunions, events, the annual magazine Post, and more.

The Treasurer is responsible for paying the bills, maintaining the budget, keeping track of all money that goes in and out of our accounts, and has traditionally represented the UCAA in the team of UCU students and staff that are responsible for organizing the annual Career Day event. We are looking for someone with an affinity for numbers, who is a team player, but also able to work independently on tasks and projects.

Other tasks, like becoming a part of the Post editorial board, helping organize events, and any other ideas or projects you might think of yourself can always be discussed, for any position.

Being a Board member gives you valuable and demonstrable experience in many important areas, like team work, organizational skills, and project management. Plus, you’ll be able to give back to your alma mater, expand your network and have fun (we promise).

Board members are partially reimbursed for the hours they spend on alumni affairs. Involvement in the board also allows you to participate in UCU’s international student recruitment with the possibility to visit educational fairs abroad. Time spent working at these fairs is also reimbursed.

As the Board is seated in Utrecht, it’s preferable if candidates either live in the area or have the ability to regularly travel there (should this not apply to you, having a working Skype connection also goes a long way). There are no fixed terms, though we ask Board members to expect to want to stay on for at least one year. Time investment is approximately 5 hours per week, plus a monthly Board meeting and attending the occasional UCU, UCAA and UU events and meetings.
