BVA seeks junior vice president
"It's a huge honour to champion what's really important to BVA members and the UK veterinary profession" - BVA president Malcolm Morley.
Applications currently open for BVA officer role.

A new junior vice president (JVP) is being sought by the British Veterinary Association (BVA), with applications now open for the position.

The successful applicant will be part of the BVA officer team for three years, spending one year as junior vice president, becoming BVA president in 2024 before spending one year as senior vice president. 

Prospective applicants have until Monday 16 January 2023 to submit their application, and the chosen JVP will begin their duties in September 2023.

Open to all BVA members at any stage of their career, the role is paid, with access to central London accommodation during the presidential year. 

The BVA is calling for dedicated and experienced members to apply for the role, and is particularly keen to receive applications from veterinary surgeons in under-represented groups.

Current BVA president Malcolm Morley discussed the role: “Being a BVA Officer is hard work, but it’s incredibly rewarding and you’re well supported by the BVA team on everything from policy to media work. 

“I would urge anyone who has a passion for animal health and welfare, and our wonderful veterinary profession, to consider putting themselves forward to join our Officer team.”

All applications are confidential, and will be reviewed by the BVA Electoral College, which will then make a recommendation to BVA Council.

A full description of the role and application form can be accessed on the BVA website. Questions can be directed to BVA Policy and Governance director Amelia Findon on ameliaf@bva.co.uk – prospective applicants may also get in touch to request an informal conversation with a BVA officer about the role.
