This could be you!

We welcome a diverse range of people and all you need is enthusiasm! PhD students, post-docs, masters students and non-academics are all happily accepted. Most of the roles have handover notes from the previous volunteers, and the committee is on hand to support. 

 
Being part of the UKPN is the perfect way to expand your polar network, hear of unique opportunities first, develop your skills, help other early career researchers, and – of course – it’s a load of fun. The UKPN is present at national and international events alongside local officials, governments, and leading scientists.
 
Please apply for one (or few) of the available positions via the form https://tinyurl.com/4fux6rpy by Sunday, 25th September 2022. Please email president@polarnetwork.org if you have any questions.
 
We are looking forward to receiving your applications!
 
Best wishes,
