2024 Council member changes

Dark blue gradient background with New Council members in white large text and the mautic logo at the bottom.

Can you believe it was a year ago that we voted in the first ever community-elected Mautic Council? 

This means that we have two members of the Council who were on a 1-year term, who will be stepping back from their roles this year.

Thank you to our outgoing Council members

We’d like to thank both Andy Towne and Favour Chibueze for all their work in helping us to get the Council off the ground and tackling some tough issues this last year. We really appreciate your willingness to step up and serve on the Council and hope that you’ll both continue to support Mautic in the many other ways you are already contributing!

2024 Council Elections

This year we put out a call for nominations and we’re pleased to say that Simran Sethi will be joining the Mautic Council on a three-year term.

The second Council seat remains open, therefore we have left the election process open should another community member feel inspired to submit themselves for consideration.

To recap the responsibilities of a Council member, it’s a three-year term during which you’ll be a part of the team who:

  • Determine and regularly report on the budget of the project (including the budgets of any team, committee or Working Group which will be determined on an annual basis in collaboration with leaders of those entities)
  • Manage all fiscal operations and relationships including the approval of expenditures
  • Manage any employees and contractors working for the Mautic project
  • Monitor and regularly report on the health of the project as a whole
  • Lead on strategic fundraising planning to support the long term strategy and growth of Mautic (in collaboration with the fundraising working group)
  • Communicate and drive progress on the project’s long term strategy
  • Manage, safeguard and enforce the trademarks and brand assets of the Mautic project (in collaboration with the Legal and Finance Team)
  • Review and sign any contractual agreements relating to the Mautic project
  • Review, document, communicate and adopt any such policies and procedures as may be determined necessary by any team, committee or Working Group
  • Execute any recommendations in relation to breaches of the Code of Conduct

We’re delighted to welcome Simran to the Council and we look forward to her joining us in Q1 2025.
