Updated after AGM: Call is still open, apply today!
Dear ESN actives, as you know a new figure will be in the Board 2008/09: the Web Projects Administrator. We, the ESN Webteam, fully supported the proposal which was approved in Besancon.
We urge all interested ESN actives to candidate. ESN would greatly benefit from having a dedicated Web Project Administrator, but this task can be a huge opportunity for you too: you will face interesting challenges, learn a lot of new stuff and, best of all, you will have a lot of fun in doing it!
And the task is not as daunting as you might imagine: you are not replacing the whole ESN Webteam! The Web Project Administrator is not required to have a lot of technical knowledge, just a bit of familiarity with web-related tools; moreover, his responsibility is limited to taking care of ESN-specific stuff and some tasks can be delegated. Finally, he will be responsible for the ESN Radio, the new big project of ESN in 2008-09!
