Feel free to contact any committee member at any time. We are here to support you!
Jacob
I’m in my third year studying Engineering. As your President, I represent the student body. I meet with senior members of College and the University regularly, passing on any concerns or feedback I receive. I lead the JCSU weekly meetings and give a helping hand to all committee members. I really want to make sure that everyone has the best University experience possible and strongly believe that our committee can be instrumental in this process.
Estelle
I’m in my third year studying History. As your Vice-President, I am responsible for many events that are important to undergraduates: halfway hall, Jesus-Jesus Varsity and the annual stash order - amongst plenty of others. I aid the President, or any other committee member, who need any extra help with their duties. I also take your views to the university wide student union meetings and try to be a friendly face around college!
Matthew
I’m in my second year studying Economics. As your Treasurer, my role is to ensure that all societies have the funds they need to run smoothly, which I do through reimbursements. I liaise with college to set the annual JCSU budget. I’m easy to contact and am always happy to discuss any budgetary issues you may have with regard to your society, whether it is old or new. I want to ensure that any society is well provided for and able to thrive.
Lewis
I'm in my second year studying HSPS. As your Secretary, my primary role is the organisation and administration of the Executive Committee and General Meetings where students hold us to account and vote on policy, keeping us transparent by posting minutes, and maintaining our governing documents. When it's open, I oversee bookings of the JCR. I also help College societies and clubs get up and running.
Angus

As your Welfare Officer, my role is to support anybody who might need a shoulder to lean on or a friendly ear to talk to – as well as to help signpost people to additional help should they think that they need it.

I aim to address welfare issues that may have been overlooked in the past, to make Jesus enjoyable for everyone.

I aim to make Jesus a welcoming and happy an environment for everyone!

As your Mental Health and Disabilities Officer, I’m here to provide guidance and support to anyone who self-identifies as disabled, having a mental health problem or needs learning support - no diagnosis needed.
