Want to join this opportunity ?
The Club is actively recruiting a Chair, to support and guide the existing LSC Board of Trustees as we navigate the next phase of the clubs operation. The Club has evolved over several years into a well established facility for the community, financially stable and with ambition to extend the use of the grounds while in balance with nature and the unique and tranquil setting of the club.
This is a volunteer position requiring 2-5 hours per week, with more time requirement for specific projects, social events and the AGM.
If you are interested and would like to meet with the Interim Chair to discuss, please email the secretary Anne on langsidesecretary@gmail.com . The recruitment process involves meeting the board, making an application, and observing board meetings. This is followed by ensuring there is a strong, reciprocal and relevant match between the Chair and the values and ambition of the club.
