Could you be part of the first DT Hub Community Council? Call for applicants - NOW CLOSED

[Claire Dowdall]

Applications are now closed. Thank you for the excellent response! We will be in touch with all applicants soon

Do you have a passion to be part of the ongoing success of the DT Hub? 

What we heard from the community at the time of creating our Annual Benchmark Report was a desire to become more involved in the direction of the DT Hub. With the help of member feedback, we have built on our early achievements, updated our website and put in place a number of improved features to enable this to happen. We are now pleased to announce the launch of the DT Hub Community Council. 

Why a Community Council? 

As our membership grows, it important that the DT Hub reflects the needs of its members. The new DT Hub Community Council will give members of the community a voice in its strategic direction and to share their feedback and ideas on how we can make the DT Hub even better.  

Why be part of it? 

As a Council member, you will have the opportunity to: 

• influence the strategic direction of your community 
• engage directly with peers and the DT Hub core team 
• provide feedback on a range of new initiatives and shape ideas 
• become visible as a recognised leader in the community 

What's the commitment? 

We will launch the Community Council in January 2022 with our first online meeting. Thereafter, meetings will be held once a quarter and will last no longer than 90 minutes.  

How to apply 

If you would like to join the DT Hub Community Council, simply email our Community Manager, claire.dowdall@cdbb.cam.ac.uk with a short statement of no more than 300 words on what you'd hope to bring to the Council. 

The Council that is envisaged will be as inclusive and diverse as possible, and we welcome applicants from across the academic, public and private sectors. 

If you're unable to get involved yourself, but know someone who would be an excellent candidate, you can nominate them by email, together with a short statement as to why you are nominating them.   

Applications close on Friday 3 December 2021.  Successful candidates will be contacted via email before Friday 17 December, looking ahead to an inaugural meeting of the Council in January 2022. 

[Claire Dowdall]

Applications are being accepted up to 5pm (GMT) tomorrow. If you are an active community member and would like to contribute to its development, we are still welcoming applications. Please don't forget to include a statement of up to 300 words on why you would like to be part of the Community Council. We don't require CVs - we are more interested in your passion for where the Digital Twin Hub can go and how we can work together to make positive change. Please email me at claire.dowdall@cdbb.cam.ac.uk with applications.

All applicants will be contacted by the end of next week to inform you of next steps, whether you are successful or not.

Thank you to everyone who has applied so far. The response has been excellent!
