Oxford Students’ Union is the representative body of the students at the University of Oxford. Every year in Hilary Term, the Oxford SU Leadership Elections allow students to nominate themselves for a variety of elected positions including as one of our Sabbatical Officers. These elected officers lead the students’ union by ensuring that student’s views are represented in decision-making across the university.
Oxford SU is currently in Transformation. We’re on a mission to turn Oxford SU into a thriving, student-led union where every student feels heard and represented. We're building a union that truly belongs to the students, driven by your voices and focused on your needs.
We’re redefining what it means to be truly student-led – giving students power and influence over the impact of the organisation. We’re opening ourselves up through transparency. We want to deliver impact and value for students, the University, common rooms and colleges.
As the leading voice for students at Oxford, we’re committed to representing every aspect of student life—from education to the broader experience that defines life at Oxford.
This year, we’re doing elections a little differently. By the time the elections come around we’ll have completed the first stage of our democracy review, meaning that you could be in line to lead a completely different organisation than the one we are now. So, we’re asking candidates to think about what they can bring to Transformation and how they’ll help us deliver the change we’re hoping to see.
