Elections

We are proud to be the collective voice of our multi-professional members.

Elections at the Intensive Care Society 

Our work depends on the contributions of members represented on our Council, Committees and Professional Advisory Groups - thank you for committing to help represent your community.   

Elections 2025 

Do you want your voice heard at the Intensive Care Society on behalf of the intensive care community?

We have the following vacancies on Council and Professional Advisory Groups (PAGs) in 2025. 

Why this matters?

There are two routes to becoming an elected Council member of the Intensive Care Society - firstly via the any member Election pathway and secondly, once elected on to a Professional Advisory Group, the nominated Chair and Deputy Chair(s) have dedicated seats on Council.

The number of Deputy Chairs on Council representing each PAG depends on the proportion of professional membership of the Society - for example Consultant Intensivists have 3 Deputy Chair seats, Resident Doctors, 2 Deputy Chair seats and SAS Doctors currently have 0 and are represented at Council by the Chair.

Council vacancies 

  • One national any member vacancy 

Term of office begins in December 2025. 

PAG vacancies 

  • Seven Consultant Intensivist vacancies 

  • Five Resident Doctors vacancies
