Committee

Listed on this page are our current members of committee! If you’d like to take a role on committee, we hold elections for these positions twice a year (at our AGM and OGM). You do need to be a current Monash Clayton student to be eligible for any of the below positions – however, if you’re not but you’re still interested in helping out, we’d love to hear from you! Please contact us at committee@monucs.org.au if you’d like to get involved.

Executive

The Executive is the centre structure of committee! They keep the lights on and make sure MonUCS keeps up all its basic operations. The President is the face of the choir and runs our committee meetings. The Vice President is there to assist the President, run things when they’re not available, and also takes on a portfolio position. The Treasurer handles our finances and makes sure we’re budgeting well for all the fun events we want to run! The Secretary attends to the organisational aspect of MonUCS, including sending out our regular emails and handling club memberships.

General Representatives

The General Representatives are members of the choir who’ve decided to step up and take part in running it! They each take on one of our “portfolio roles”, which include Assistant Treasurer, Assistant Secretary, Concert Manager, Events Officer, Fundraising Officer, IT Officer, Publicity Officer, and Resources Officer.

First Year (Fresher) Representatives

In MonUCS, “freshers” are people who are in their first year of participating in the choir. As such, we aim to have a couple of fresher representatives on committee! They can provide useful perspective as newer voices. They may not take on portfolio roles, but do help out with the general operations of committee. We elect our Fresher Reps at our OGM in Semester 1, and they stay in the role until the next OGM.

Both of our Fresher Representative positions are currently vacant. If you’re new to MonUCS and would like a taste of being on the Committee without making a major commitment, consider applying for this role at the upcoming OGM!

Section Leaders

Our Section Leaders are responsible for helping coordinate the choir during rehearsals, and are a great point of contact for choristers wanting to bring issues to the Committee without coming to us directly. Come say hello to them during rehearsal if you haven’t already!

Appointed Members

Sometimes people are just really keen to lend us a helping hand! As a committee, we can appoint such enthusiastic volunteers with portfolio roles to manage. These people usually attend committee meetings (particularly ones with relevance to their roles), but don’t get a vote like elected committee members do. We thoroughly appreciate the invaluable support they provided in helping make sure MonUCS runs smoothly!
