MEMBERSHIP AND OUTREACH CO-ORDINATOR JOB POSTING

Co-op Radio is seeking a motivated, inspired, and highly skilled
co-ordinator for our Membership Services and Outreach areas.  The 
selected person will build/maintain administrative systems that are 
sustainable and, whenever appropriate, based upon our large pool of 
volunteer labour.  This enthusiastic person will train long-term 
volunteers and co-ordinate a variety of systems in ways that make 
them enjoyable for all and highly effective for the co-operative.

Co-op Radio (102.7 FM) is a dynamic organization with a diverse 
listening audience.  Our Board oversees a Staff collective, each 
member of which is supported and directed by their respective 
Committee(s).  We currently have 30,000 shareholders and maintain 
our independence in this world of corporately-dominated media by 
being membership- based and driven.  We are just beginning our 30th 
anniversary celebrations -- 30 years of non-commercial radio in 13 
different languages, which is now broadcast via Internet around the 
world every hour of every day.

If selected for this position, you will be both supported and directed by
the Membership and Outreach Committee and the Special Donations 
Committee via regular monthly meetings and email discussions.  You 
will also share in the collective, day-to-day duties of running the Radio 
Station and you will attend Board meetings approximately 3 times per 
year.

As the selected candidate, you will be very proficient with email, Word
processing, Excel spreadsheets, and Access databases.  Your 
telephone and in-person communication skills are well-developed as 
are your meeting skills.  Ideally, you have worked extensively in a 
consensus decision-making environment and you have a good working 
knowledge of at least one contact/fundraising database.  You are able 
to both take and give direction in a respectful and clear manner and 
you understand the importance of community-based, independent 
media, especially in today's world.

The selected candidate will start at the beginning of September 2004.

This is a permanent, part-time position (110 hours per month) that is
unionized through the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW).  The selected 
candidate will be paid $18.46 per hour with a generous benefit and 
vacation package.

APPLY: via email to cfro-hiring at coopradio.org (you will receive an

AND a paragraph (or two) describing the benefits and challenges of 
working in a co-operative/collective organization/structure.
