The Student Elections are the most important democratic event on campus! Voting closes at 5pm on 25 March.
LBSU is hosting the biggest democratic event of the year on campus in March, the Student Elections! If you haven’t gotten involved yet, this is your moment! The elections provide an opportunity for discussions around student issues, for students to campaign for a position at the SU and for you to elect your representatives for the 2027/28 academic year. The elections directly impact your university experience at Leeds Beckett and give you a chance to have your say!
We use community organising to empower students to create change together. Our student elections are part of that journey: they’re not just about choosing leaders, but about building power, talking about what matters for students, and developing new organisers every year. By standing, voting, or getting involved in a campaign, you’re helping to shape a stronger, more connected student community at Leeds Beckett.
The elections will take place on the 16th and 17th of March where you’ll be encouraged to speak to candidates on campus, read their manifestos, get involved in discussions with coursemates and vote online.
Undergraduate and Postgraduate Officers: Full-time paid roles, from July 2027 to July 2028, focused on representing the undergraduate and postgraduate student voice within the University, locally and nationally.
Students who wish to apply for a role in the Student Executive Committee need to book a meeting with a member of our team before 11 December 2026 by clicking on the button at the top of the page. Pick ''Election 121'' and choose a time that works for you!
We'll arrange an in-person chat with you on campus to discuss the role, the Students' Union priorities, skills development opportunities throughout the election process and the candidate journey. After your meeting, we'll give you access to the application page.
