Do you want to make a real difference to lives of others while developing valuable skills and experience? Volunteering as a Management Committee member with Clydesdale Housing Association offers a unique opportunity to play a key role in shaping high quality housing and services for the wider community while also strengthening your confidence, leadership and decision making skills.Our Committee members provide the leadership, direction and oversight required to ensure that we continue to meet the needs of our customers and the wider community. We want to recruit someone to join our Committee who shares these common values:
- We listen, learn and work with customers, stakeholders and partners to improve how we work in the pursuit of excellence
- We encourage leadership and teamwork to identify and share progressive ideas
- We value our people’s commitment and support their enthusiasm in achieving success
- We invest in the wellbeing of our customers and our people
Our services enjoy high levels of tenant satisfaction, and we have a long track record of excellent performance. The most important asset any Committee member can bring is their commitment to our work.
What You will Get
Full training and support will be provided through an initial 6-month period and then on an ongoing basis.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to observe a Committee meeting before joining us.
Although Management Committee work is unpaid, we will reimburse out of pocket expenses, including care and travelling costs.
The main reward though is knowing that you are part of a team that is helping to improve the lives of others.
The Commitment
Our Management Committee meets monthly in Lanark (usually held on the last Wednesday of the month – between 6.30 and 8.30pm). Videoconferencing is also available on the occasions when physical attendance is not possible.
We are passionate about creating a diverse Committee and positively encourage applications from under-represented communities such as people with disabilities and ethnic minorities.
