Learn more about this role
Your Students' Union has four Sabbatical Officer positions, these are full-time and paid. The roles are for a Group President (one over-arching role covering all campuses), and a Campus President position for Swansea, Lampeter and Carmarthen.
Together, the team of Sabbatical Officers leads the Students’ Union on a daily basis, providing direction to the Union’s staff team and making sure that the work of the organisation is relevant to the experience of our students. Sabbatical Officers are considered to be the primary student representatives by the University and provide student ideas, issues and opinions on a variety of topics by participating in project, partnership and committee work within the University.
Sabbatical Officers set the agenda in terms of new ideas and activities for the Students’ Union to try, and work hard to make sure that all students know what their Union is for, and how they can get in touch. Sabbatical Officers automatically serve as trustees of the Students’ Union, and any candidates should read the Student Trustees section to make sure they are eligible.

- To effectively represent the views of students to the University and other stakeholders in order to advance the experience of students at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David.

- To support the development of localised engagement opportunities for students in activities and volunteering.

Hello everyone, my name is Lowri Wilson and I am your Carmarthen President. I am extremely passionate about making positive changes in enhancing student's experience on campus.
I know first-hand that there could be more support out there for students, which is one of the reasons why I put myself forward for the role.

I aim to make the campus more accessible for everyone and aim to bring everyone together to make the campus more fun, enjoyable, sustainable and easier to get around.
Looking forward to meeting you all in welcome week. Please come and say hi, and in the meantime, May the Force be with You!
