The Vice President is the President's shadow, who will fufil the duties of the President if they are unable to do so. Generally, this is so the President can take a vacation every now and then, and not worry about leaving Quelab in the lurch. Thus, the Vice President is the second in the line of succession for the presidency of Quelab.

Additionally, the vice president has been given the responsibility of coordinating the annual election for the Board of Directors, as set down in the Election Handbook. Historically, the Vice President has also pursued space-improvement projects, such as the skill-tree, safety orientation, and outreach.
