Dear UKPN members,

It's that time of year again! We are looking for new members on our 2022/23 committee. We have the following roles are available: 

Outreach Officer (Events) -- See https://tinyurl.com/3ra3p3z8 for more details.
Co-head of Education and Outreach (Outreach team) -- See https://tinyurl.com/2p9aafn8 for more details.
Outreach officer (Antarctic Flags) -- See https://tinyurl.com/y8989hp4 for more details. 
Social media officer
Webmaster (Social media team) -- new role
EDI Officer
Training officer -- new role

We welcome a diverse range of people and all you need is enthusiasm! PhD students, post-docs, masters students and non-academics are all happily accepted. Most of the roles have handover notes from the previous volunteers, and the committee is on hand to support. 

Being part of the UKPN is the perfect way to expand your polar network, hear of unique opportunities first, develop your skills, help other early career researchers, and – of course – it's a load of fun. The UKPN is present at national and international events alongside local officials, governments, and leading scientists.

Please apply for one (or few) of the available positions via the form https://tinyurl.com/4fux6rpy by Friday, 16th September 2022. Please email president@polarnetwork.org if you have any questions.

We are looking forward to receiving your applications!
