The targetjobs Society Summit August 2026

Are you on the committee for a society at your university? If yes, then you're already building skills that employers look for, whether that's leading a team, managing budgets, organising events, securing sponsorships or growing a community. And we want you to join us at the targetjobs society summit! 

The targetjobs Society Summit brings together committee members from some of the UK's leading academic and professional societies for a day of networking, skills development and career-focused opportunities. Whether you're a President, Treasurer, Secretary, Events Officer or Committee Member, this event will help you understand the value of your experience and how it can support your future career. 

Connect with Other Student Leaders 
Meet committee members from universities across the UK, share ideas, exchange best practice and expand your network beyond your own campus. 

Meet Employers Who Value Leadership 
Connect with organisations that recognise the skills and initiative it takes to run a successful student society. 

Develop Skills for Your Future 
Take part in interactive workshops designed to strengthen your leadership, communication, project management and strategic thinking skills. 

Learn from People Who've Been in Your Shoes 
Hear from former society leaders and industry professionals about how their extracurricular experiences helped shape their careers. 

Recognise Your Employability Edge 
Discover how to showcase your committee experience in applications, interviews and assessment centres, and learn how to communicate the impact you've made. 

If you've ever wondered whether employers care about your society experience, the answer is yes. 

The skills you're developing outside the classroom can be just as valuable as those you're learning in your degree. The targetjobs Society Summit is designed to help you connect the dots between your committee role and your future career, while giving you the opportunity to learn from employers and fellow student leaders who share your ambition. 

If you're on the committee for your university society, this is your opportunity to represent your society, connect with like-minded student leaders, gain practical skills, and discover how the experience you're building today can help open doors tomorrow. 

Join the targetjobs Society Summit and see where your leadership experience can take you.
