We can’t quite believe it, but that time of year has rolled around again! Behind the scenes, the WCDLN organising team is getting down to business and beginning the first stages of organising the next event.
We’ll be posting dates and venue details as soon as possible, but for now, we wanted to take this time to call out to any organisers eager to join us.
What to expect
As an organiser of WordCamp London, you’ll be expected to dedicate a portion of your weekly time towards the event. We don’t know how many hours this adds up to. But, depending on your role, demands on you will change throughout the organising process and you may find yourself inundated one week and with nothing to do the next.
We do ask that, however you do it, you contribute consistently and communicate with your team adequately. Organising an event for 600+ people is no small feat, and all that we ask is that you commit to it from the beginning, and maintain that commitment throughout.
Take a look at this post for a full list of roles and responsibilities in the WordCamp London organising team. Although some roles are already filled, every major section of the event is run by a team (Speakers, Sponsors, Budget, Volunteers, etc) so we will endeavour to place you in a team of your choice.
Interested in joining us?
That’s exciting and we’re really grateful for your time! Please email us at london@wordcamp.org with the following information:
- Why you’d like to get involved? (A brief explanation is enough!)
- If you’ve been involved in organising meetups, or WordCamps previously, please let us know and specify which ones.
- Which team you’d be interested in joining?
We’ll then be in touch as soon as we can to onboard you to the team.
We’re holding our first organisers meeting on Monday 18th September at 7:30 PM BST in the UK-WP-COMMUNITY Slack team, in the #wcldn channel. (Not in the channel? Join here)
As always, our meetings will be held in the open, and our organising process will be as transparent as possible.
