Help Build NCFA UK’s Learning Resources

The NCFA UK Vice President of Resources leads the development and organisation of educational and professional resources across the National Cyber & Forensics Alliance UK Chapter.

This is an opportunity to help create study materials, technical content and learning resources while gaining valuable leadership and project management experience as part of the NCFA UK Chapter Leadership Team.

About the Role

The Vice President of Resources leads the planning and coordination of educational resource development across the UK chapter, ensuring that members have access to high-quality learning materials and professional guidance.

You are not expected to be an expert in every area of cyber security. Instead, your role is to identify valuable topics, coordinate contributors, maintain quality standards and ensure resources are completed and published.

This role requires consistent organisation, communication and follow-up throughout the elected term, as many resource projects develop over longer periods.

Applications are open to current students and alumni who are NCFA members and are able to commit consistently throughout the full elected term.

Applicants with previous experience in:

NCFA Technical Ambassador
NCFA Talks Ambassador
Technical Writing

Teaching

Equivalent experience gained through university societies, volunteer organisations or professional environments will also be considered.
