This team would be a perfect fit if you have technical proficiency and solid problem-solving skills. Experience in networking and IT troubleshooting are highly desirable.
Local Team

Join this team for one of the most demanding and rewarding roles in the entire organising structure.
This team would be a perfect fit if you have strong organisational and people management skills. Experience recruiting and coordinating large groups, along with the ability to stay calm under pressure, will serve you well here.
Website Team
The Website Team creates the online experience for WCEU attendees. This team works closely with the Design Team and the Communications Team to bring the event’s vision to life on the web, covering everything from landing pages to navigation to functionality. Note that the WCEU website runs on the WordCamp multisite setup, so plugin use and custom coding are limited.
