We are recruiting a new Vice Chair (VC) Membership. This is one of the most senior roles within our organisation and we are recruiting because sadly the previous VC Membership has had to resign due to time commitments.

If you have any questions about the role or process please contact the team at [email protected]
Yours sincerely,
Elena Rose Bunbury
Chair
Why join the Team?
LGBT+ Conservatives is run entirely by elected volunteers, the purpose of the group at it's core is to fundraise to support LGBT+ candidates standing in elections, but over the past few years it has been built to do so much more.
From helping shape policy, briefing MPs, raising aware on key campaigns like HIV testing, organising social events, to taking part in focus groups with CCHQ, it really can be what you want it to be.
If you have ideas or think things could be done differently, this is the opportunity to do that!
Aside from it being great for a CV, we take personal development really seriously and if there is an area you want to work on, we can try to facilitate that. This is your opportunity to make an impact in the field of politics and help improve not only LGBT+ representation, but LGBT+ lives.
