Santa Monica College Seeks Applicants for Personnel Commission Vacancy

The five-member Personnel Commission oversees hiring, retention and promotion for the college’s classified—or non-teaching—employees

The Santa Monica College Board of Trustees is accepting applications for an upcoming vacancy on the college’s Personnel Commission, the public body responsible for administering SMC’s merit-based employment system.

The appointment will begin Dec. 1, and continue through Nov. 30, 2028. Applications are due by Friday, Nov. 14, and can be submitted online at smc.edu/PCApplication.

The five-member Personnel Commission oversees hiring, retention and promotion for the college’s classified—or non-teaching—employees. Two commissioners are appointed by the Board of Trustees, two by SMC’s classified employees through their union, the California School Employees Association, and a fifth is jointly selected by the other four members.

Applicants must be registered voters who reside within the Santa Monica Community College District, which includes Santa Monica and Malibu. They cannot be members of a governing board of any community college district or a county board of education, nor can they be employed by the district during their term. Candidates must also support the principles of a merit-based personnel system.

For more information, contact Lisa Rose in the Office of the Board of Trustees at Rose_Lisa@smc.edu, or visit smc.edu/PersonnelCommission.
