At NHSMUN 2026, our delegates raised the bar with skillful debate, creative solutions, and memorable speeches. Across every committee room, students demonstrated deep research and preparation and a willingness to collaborate, compromise, and construct solutions to complex global issues. As we look ahead to NHSMUN 2027, we are excited to make the next conference our best yet! NHSMUN is a unique experience in large part due to the strength of our volunteer staff. To make NHSMUN 2027 our best one yet, we are looking for driven, collaborative, and enthusiastic MUNers to join our staff.

Assistant Directors (ADs) are integral to the continued success of NHSMUN. They work with our talented directors to create content for the world’s premier MUN experience, meet driven students from all over the globe, and see NHSMUN from an entirely new perspective. At NHSMUN, we welcome all students in any major, from any school, living anywhere in the world to be a part of our team. As long as you have an interest in Model United Nations and have graduated high school by March 2027, you are invited to apply to serve on our volunteer staff. With more than 150 team members over two sessions, there is an incredibly diverse set of personalities, interests, and experiences at NHSMUN!

Students who are high school graduates in 2026 or who have completed their first year of university studies are most encouraged to apply. The position of Assistant Director is an excellent way to continue to grow and expand your leadership and public speaking skills along with your advanced studies. NHSMUN will teach you to hone your research, leadership, and critical thinking skills in new ways beyond participating as a delegate.

As a staff member, the cost of your hotel accommodations is paid for in full. Additionally, NHSMUN reimburses travel expenses up to an assigned cap, based on traveling location.
