The SU Leadership Elections 2026
Sabbatical Officers (Presidents and Vice Presidents) are elected by students to lead the Students' Union. Students take a year out of studying to work full-time in a paid role representing students. The sabbatical officer elections are a key part of union democracy and the votes of students directing what the Students' Union works on in the next academic year.
Voting is open from 12 pm Monday 2 March to 12pm Thursday 5 March.

How does voting work?
We use a Single Transferable Vote (STV) system, which means voters can rank candidates. This is one of the more proportional systems to make sure your representatives represent you.
