Great that you are interested to work together with thousands of Europeans and that you want to contribute to shaping our future by working on the European level of Volt. Towards the end of this year, in October we are organizing the elections for our European Board and Conflict Resolution Body. For that important responsibility, we are seeking members to form our Electoral Committee. 

The Electoral Committee is an independent body responsible for organizing and overseeing all the internal elections of the Association as well as overseeing all voting operations of the Assembly.

When you become part of the Electoral Committee, you will be part of a team composed of 5 members representing different (associated) Member Associations throughout our movement in Europe. The Electoral Committee will be taking care of the organization of our internal elections and the voting at our General Assemblies. You will have a direct impact on the elections for the leaders of our movement and the voting procedures at our General Assemblies. 

You will be working closely with the leaders of our organization in the European Board and the Country Council. It will be a wonderful ride,  an incredibly challenging, stimulating, and dynamic work experience!
