Candidate to become a Summer Assistant!

The Social Sciences Student Union is opening applications for two Summer Assistant positions from July 15 to August 31, 2026 
Deadline to apply is the 8th of June, at 23:59
CANDIDATE HERE!
Both positions are full-time remunerated roles equivalent to a 40-hour working week. Compensation corresponds to 33% of the Swedish base price amount. The positions were approved by the Assembly and will be elected at the Student Union’s final board meeting of the semester, during which the shortlisted candidates will be invited to present themselves.

Take the opportunity to get involved and help strengthen the Union’s internal structure throughout the summer! 🧩


  • Communications Assistant
    The Communications Assistant supports the Union’s communication efforts, including social media planning, recruitment campaigns, event promotion, and creating visual material for the upcoming operational year.
    Experience with PR or social media is recommended, as well as familiarity with the Social Sciences Student Union’s graphical profile.
  • Administrative Assistant
    The Administrative Assistant supports the Union’s organisational development through reviewing governing documents, project management, and improving internal processes and structures.
    Experience with administrative work and project management is recommended. Familiarity with the Student Union’s internal structure is considered meritable.


General information about both roles
Both assistants will work closely with the Student Union’s fulltimers and support projects where additional assistance is needed. The roles are flexible, and responsibilities may overlap at times. Major projects during the summer may include the novice period, SLOSAM, and onboarding the new board.

The mandate period for both positions runs from the 15th of July to the 31st of August 2026. Both positions are time-limited, renumerated positions, not employment opportunities.   

The Assembly 2026/2027
Elections are now closed.

The Assembly, or Fullmäktige (FUM) in Swedish, is the highest decision-making body of the Social Sciences Student Union. This body functions similarly to a parliament, where elected representatives act on behalf of all members when making important decisions for the student union. The Assembly meets at least two times per semester, and will decide at the beginning of autumn how many times to convene in the coming year.
