Drafting a new job description or updating an existing job description can be a challenge. It is critical to include an accurate person specification and include all the key responsibilities included within the role.

How can you be sure you have covered off all the essential areas? Does the wording make sense? Is there a “sector standard” to benchmark with?

Presenting an effective job description is incredibly important to ensure that both the employee knows what is expected of them and equally for the line manager to have an appropriate level of expectations for their colleague. Member-facing roles in a variety of organisations have a lot of similarities and this is where our helpful Membership Focused Job Descriptions can provide support, direction or benchmarking.

It is important to remember that despite the similarities in these membership roles they are also unique to each association/team/structure they are in. All should include a person specification and key responsibilities.

We have created job descriptions for all levels of seniority:

– Administrator/Coordinator
– Manager
– Head of Function
– Director

The JDs should be customised and tweaked to suit your particular needs to ensure you have the fit you are after.

Once you have completed your job description and quality assured it against our template you will be ready to advertise your current role.

We understand that getting the right candidates to apply for the role is critical and that is how MemberWise Jobs can also help…

It isn’t just about advertising the role for a vacancy either. If you are considering a review of team duties or undertaking a restructure these JDs are perfect for benchmarking and to ensure that you don’t miss any critical functions.

Using our unique reach and extensive experience in the sector these JDs have been created through aggregation across core responsibilities and skill sets across a range of roles. We regularly review and update them to reflect the evolving nature of the sector and the variety of jobs that exist to support your membership operations.
