European Women in Endocrinology (EUWIN) Group Lead roles

Call for female ESE members to join EUWIN group

The European Women in Endocrinology (EUWIN) initiative was launched in May 2022, as a peer-to-peer community to support women in endocrinology in Europe and within ESE by providing career support and advice, and enhancing networking opportunities. The European Society of Endocrinology (ESE) has been working closely with the three founders Cynthia Andoniadou (UK), Wiebke Arlt (UK) and Jenny Visser (The Netherlands) to implement and support EUWIN activities and establish this community.

We are now seeking three female ESE members to take over from the current leads. Candidates will be at the mid-senior career level and will help lead EUWIN activities over the next two years (From Aug-Dec 2024 to May 2027), taking over from the current leads. The roles can be taken up on a phased basis over the next three to six months. These are voluntary roles. The ESE Office Team will continue to support the logistics and implementation of all EUWIN activities.
