Nominations for the Mautic Council elections are now open.
There are many ways to contribute to Mautic. Sharing knowledge, testing a release, translating documentation, welcoming someone new: each contribution helps the project move forward.
Serving on the Mautic Council is another way to contribute, bringing your experience and perspective to the decisions that support the whole project.
This year, three Council seats are up for election. Nominations are open until Sunday, November 15, and we’d love to hear from people who want to help guide Mautic through its next chapter.
Could that be you? Or someone you know in the community?
What does the Council do?
The Council helps make sure Mautic has the direction, resources and support it needs to thrive as an independent open source project.
Its responsibilities include overseeing the project’s budget and finances, managing staff and contractors, guiding long-term strategy and leading fundraising planning. It also safeguards Mautic’s trademarks and brand assets, reviews contracts, adopts policies proposed by the teams and puts Code of Conduct recommendations into action.
These responsibilities come with accountability to the community. Meeting agendas and notes are shared publicly, so you can follow the Council’s work and the decisions being made.
You can explore the full responsibilities in the Mautic Governance Model and meet the current Council.
Could you contribute?
Perhaps you’ve helped an organisation grow, built partnerships, led a team or raised funds for a cause you believe in. Perhaps your experience of using or contributing to Mautic has given you ideas about where the project should go next.
We’re particularly keen to hear from people with experience in business development, leadership, fundraising or helping organisations grow. Those skills can make a valuable contribution to Mautic’s future.
We also want a Council that reflects the community it serves. Different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives help us ask better questions and make more considered decisions.
If you care about Mautic and are ready to take on the responsibility, please consider putting yourself forward.
Who can stand?
To stand for election, you’ll need to:
- Be an individual member of Mautic and maintain your membership throughout your term.
- Have no outstanding, unresolved Code of Conduct breaches or investigations.
- Disclose your affiliations outside Mautic when you’re nominated and keep them up to date.
- Be ready to commit to a three-year term.
Your nomination is an opportunity to tell the community about yourself: the experience you bring, why you’d like to serve and what you hope to contribute.
How to nominate
You can nominate yourself through the Community Portal. If you know someone who would make a valuable Council member, speak with them first and nominate them with their consent.

Thank you, Dominique

Serving on the Council is a commitment, and we’re grateful to everyone who takes on that responsibility on behalf of the community.
