Governance group – volunteers required

The Governance team are looking for more volunteers to join their group to help them work through a major project.

The group are an established team of volunteers who ensure that Chester FC have all the required business processes and procedures in place that we need to be legally compliant and reduce unnecessary risk.

The group are currently reviewing all areas of business governance and are looking for help to complete this major project.

If you have a few hours per week to spare and would like to join a committed and friendly team, we would love to hear from you.

In particular we are looking for the following skills to compliment and assit our existing team: legal compliance, contractual/purchasing experience,  risk/contingency planning, health and safety, and human resources.

It’s hard work, but very rewarding, plus we have fun too! Of paramount importance is willingness and enthusiasm. If you feel you could make a difference and add value to our great team please contact Richard Lynes on the email address below: rich.lynes@gmail.com
