Get Involved!
Take your passion for food one step further – it doesn’t matter whether that means eating lots (more) of it, writing about it, promoting it, or planning events around it: The Food Society is looking for a select number of motivated individuals to join our executive team for this school year.
Last updated September 25, 2011. Updated openings.
The positions we are looking to fill immediately are:
- Miniclub leaders
Miniclub Leaders:
So you want to have your own Miniclub?
Miniclubs come in various shapes and sizes: Dine-out (cheap/fine dining), Cooking (beginner/advanced), Baking (beginner/advanced), Wine Tasting, or any food related activity that you have some experience in and are passionate about! As a Miniclub leader, you will plan events for and lead a group of 10 or so members. The smaller group environment allows the members to bond and get to know each other better. We suggest that the clubs meet at least once a month, but the decision is up to you. This is a great way to become more involved with FoodSoc and take on a leadership role with flexibility.
Check out the Miniclubs tab on this website to see some examples of what leaders did last year!
Tasks and responsibilities:
- Plan event logistics, contact members to set dates/times
- For dineout miniclubs: find neat restaurants and contact them for reservations
- For cooking/baking miniclubs: plan a menu, go grocery shopping, and then eat and enjoy your creations!
Things we are looking for:
- Passionate about working with people and, of course, food!
- Ideas for exciting, engaging events
- Sociable and inviting
What’s expected:
- Planning ahead and keeping in contact with your members
Looking forward to your applications. Please don’t hesitate to e-mail us at info@ubcfoodsociety.com if you have any questions!
