Call for candidates for four EOSC-A Director positions

The EOSC Association announces a call for candidates to four (4) Director positions in the upcoming 2024 elections, which will be held during the 9th General Assembly (GA#9) on 22 November 2024. This meeting will be held online, with voting also taking place online.

The upcoming election is being held because the terms of three Directors are concluding (with one of these eligible to stand for re-election), and a fourth vacancy has arisen prematurely due to the December 2023 passing of Director Sarah Jones. Sarah’s position will initially be filled on a one-year interim basis.

Directors can serve up to six years if re-elected after the initial term. The one-year term director can serve up to four years with re-election.

Currently there is a need for Directors with specific skills, including political insight, policy expertise, and relevant technological know-how, which would best serve to continue the ongoing work of the Board.
