How Volunteers Can Help The Globe |
|
Volunteers at The Globe contribute in a variety of ways, according to
their skills and what their circumstances allow. This includes the following
highly-visible roles with lots of customer and artist interaction (all with
appropriate training provided): |
- Helping run the bar, serving drinks and taking
payments
- Welcoming guests at the door and helping set
the room up for events
- Operating the audio, video and lighting
systems for live acts
|
Alternatively, there are several 'back-room' roles where experience is
welcome, including: |
- Maintaining audio/visual equipment to a high
standard
- Painting, decorating and general property
maintenance
- Helping promote our events and learning
programmes
|
We are also keen to hear from individuals who might be prepared to
invest in the business as a member of the cooperative and could also help us
run the business by becoming a Board member, providing expertise in areas
such as: |
- Financial management
- Human resources
- Property and equipment
- Marketing and promotion
- Events management
- Learning and participation
|
The Benefits of Becoming a Globe Volunteer |
|
There are some practical advantages to being a Globe volunteer. You
can gain new skills through our high quality training in areas such as: |
- Running a bar and customer service
- Operating sound, lighting and video systems
for live and recorded gigs
|
As either a bar or front-of-house helper you get to see a wide variety
of live acts for free. And as someone involved in our 'back room' support
functions you get the satisfaction of witnessing the business moving forwards
based on your own efforts and those of the wider Globe team. |
|
You know what? You’ll make some new friends too! |
