All,
After almost 4 years, I will be standing down as Secretary / Treasurer
of the MCG
at the next AGM and Meeting in Liverpool (November 2005). I am now,
therefore,
seeking those interested to apply for the position with a view to them
being elected
at the meeting.
The position, which I have enjoyed immensely, is one of great variety.
As a brief outline, the duties of the position include:
The maintenance and development of a Members - database Producing and
sending out membership information - Managing a dedicated mailbox
(currently [log in to unmask]) - Payment of invoices (general
book keeping) - Managing the Group's finances (cheque signing, paying
in, corresponding with the bank) - Fielding queries and dealing with
official bodies - Managing the Group's Domain registration -
Involvement
in the organisation of meetings - Attending meetings (UK Wide) -
managing delegate fees - providing verbal updates - Being an active
member of the Committee (approx 3 to 4 meetings per year, venue
rotated) - Minute taking (rotated) - Organising an annual Audit
Those interested should be able to spend some time travelling around
the UK (you will need a supportive employer!) and won't mind working
some weekends from home, particularly during Membership renewals. The
position, as all Committee positions, is unpaid, although some
expenses can be claimed.
If you think that you can manage all of the above as well as bring new
ideas and energy to the Committee and to the Group, please contact me
for an informal chat. Once a short list has been selected, the rest
of the Committee will meet to discuss and select the new Member.
I'm more than happy to talk to you further about this exciting
position (contact details below) and look forward to speaking with
those interested soon. If you know of anyone who may be interested
but isn't a member of the mailing list, please pass this information
on. I will provide full training and an official handover before I
stand down.
Please feel free to post this message to other Lists.
Regards,
Stuart
MCG Secretary / Treasurer
