It’s that time of year again. If you think you have something to offer, or would like to help make a difference in the NZ Specialty Coffee industry, then we’d love you to stand for a Board position.
Being on the Board can be very rewarding, and you’ll be meeting with people that share our vision vision to advance the Specialty Coffee industry in NZ, engaging with all stakeholders, providing professional development opportunities and increasing public awareness.
The Board Positions:
The Board consists of up to 10 members plus the immediate past president, and includes four officers. General board member (officer) seats are a 2 year term, and this year we’ll have 2 vacant board seats.
The tenure of President, Vice-Pres, Secretary (2nd Vice President) and Treasurer are one year terms, as is the Allied member seat, so we’re calling for nominations for these roles too. The current members may also be offering themselves for re-election. Please note, nominations for President shall only be accepted from members who have served at least one year on the Board (either currently or in the past).
Nominations are open to all members. If you’d like your nomination and a short bio circulated to all members before the AGM, please submit to David Burton. All nominations will be posted up on the website.
Members may be nominated, or nominate themselves, right up to the point of election.
If you’d like to find out more about the becoming a Board member, please contact President, Karla Gichard info@nzsca.org or 027 449 0253.
