The position of president is an essential one for the committee. As president you will be responsible for a vast number of things such as addressing conflicts within the society, handling unexpected circumstances (such as having to cancel an event or having a low turnout), submitting paperwork such as the annual risk assessment as well as any event risk assessments.

You are also the face of society, meaning you should show up to all events possible, communicate often with members and committee and when needed, external partners (such as a business you work with frequently for events) however this responsibility is shared with the social secretary. You will also be in charge of delegating tasks to other committee members for events as not to have any member of committee overwhelmed with work to do for any events.
