Situation Vacant --- BATC Membership Secretary

[G8GQS]

The BATC is a club, your club, our club, and it's ethos is the advancement of amateur television.

It is run by a volunteers drawn from the membership. Your committee needs your HELP.

Can you help the BATC fulfill its role by taking on a task:-

Membership Secretary.

Duties:-
To oversee the recruitment and enrollment of new members.
Sending out renewal reminders (postal and email) and dealing with the returns.
Posting out first magazine for new paper members.
Logging subscriptions received and paying the cheques into the HSBC.
Dealing with members enquiries relating to membership.

Skills:-
Modest use of own computer, logging on and entering and amending data into club records. (all is menu driven)
Tactful resolution of members queries and correcting errors in database and deleting old records.

Notes:-
A large proportion of the membership deal with their own renewals via the clubs website and no action is normally needed from the membership secretary.
Ideally the new membership secretary is a member of some years standing and would agree to be co-opted to committee to have the additional permissions needed to access the database, but if any member wanted to do the job but not join the committee this would be considered.
The New membership secretary needs to be UK based because of the postal requirements.
Expenses, postage, stationary, etc. refunded.
Help and advice will be given from the other committee members.

Time commitment:-
Possibly 1 to 3 hours a week, with more at times of peak renewals. Plus joining in with committee email discussions.
Formal committee meetings are conducted by Skype and last about 1-2 hours several times a year. Ideally attendance at the club General Meeting, every other year.

If you would like to help in running the BATC, or for further information, please contact our chairman Noel Matthews chairperson@batc.org.uk or the Treasurer, Brian Summers treasurer@batc.org.uk
