Elections

We're run by our members: students who are elected to lead on all aspects of the Students' Union, shaping our future, campaigning work and decision making.

Goldsmiths students are represented by four Full Time Officers, who work in a full time paid role for one year (either as a break in their studies or immediately after graduating), 21 Part Time Officers, who undertake the voluntary role alongside their studies, and four Student Trustees.

You can now nominate yourself to become a Part Time Officer of Trustee. Full Time Officers elections take place in the Spring term.
