We are very excited to announce that there are two members standing for the position of Deputy National President 2016. The person elected will go on to be the JCI UK National President in 2017.

It is fantastic that we have two passionate and dedicated members who have put themselves forward for this role. The candidates are Michael Steel from JCI Southampton and Mark Smith from JCI Sheffield. You can download their intention to stand documents by clicking on their names.

Over the next few weeks leading up to the election, you will have the opportunity to get to know the candidates further via blogs, videos and newsletters. We encourage you to read the candidates' intentions to stand, listen to their ideas and ask them questions.

The election will take place at the JCI UK AGM on 12 September in Sheffield. Each local chamber will be able to vote for their preferred candidate and we encourage you to let you Local President know your thoughts on this important decision for the future of JCI UK.

If you have any questions about the election process, then please contact 2015 Deputy National President Sarah Beckwith.
