Membership Secretary​/Trustee - Volunteer

What Difference Will You Make?

The success of the membership role will lead to an increase in the numbers of our supporters, bringing much needed funds used to support projects within the area, such as the reintroduction of Native Oysters to harbour estuaries, building protected habitats for seasonal migrating birds to nest and rear their chicks.

We are looking for applicants with great ideas on recruiting new members, and who are well organised and can convey our message to prospective members. Ideally the applicants will have experience in any of the following key skills:

• Event management
• Marketing strategy
• Business development / Sales
• Fundraising research / Bid writing
• Fundraising strategy
• Strategic development and planning
• General / operations management
• Market research

There are optimally 12 Trustees covering all aspects of the Charity's work including the two membership secretaries. The Charity supports the Chichester Harbour Conservancy with its statutory objectives and also supports small high-impact projects that help protect and care for the harbour.

As Membership Secretaries you will reach out to the public and corporate members, answer their membership concerns and generally promote awareness of the great work our charity does.

There are four Trustee meetings during the year and an Annual Meeting, plus the time you are willing to spend on the membership roles. The Admin and Finance teams are also very involved in helping the membership team.
