Below are some details of the position of the committee as well as their job description.
CHAIR / VICE CHAIR - The chairperson is responsible for making every decisions as well as set the agenda for every meeting such as to discuss the problems, complaints. He/She also distributed all the work to the committee and make sure all the work is evenly distributed among the committee. Also always keep in track all the committee’s work and try to make sure that the LufBru Society is in the right vision. It is fun though, but the most important thing in the committee is teamwork and communication.
SECRETARY - A secretary does not merely take meeting minutes and keep important documents; he books venues for meetings and events. He keeps himself up-to-date and helps other committee members wherever and whenever he can. Sounds boring but it’s nothing of the sort, in my opinion anyways! Being a secretary really helps you to brush up communication skills and especially and more importantly, time management – a good thing to practice if you’re studying to become an engineer. It’s a position worth nominating for! You acquire skills usually asked for in CVs or interviews.
TREASURER - A treasurer utilizes and improves her skill in financial management. She prepares and plans budgets for any events or activities, carry out a weekly book keeping to update it with any activities and finalize it every month. She has the power to disapprove any events that she sees unfeasible to carry out and always keep in track of the balance in the society’s bank account and ensure sufficient cash in hand or weekly or urgent uses.
SOCIAL SECRETARY - The social secretary's main job is basically to keep Lufbru a tight-knit and close society by the means of events and activities. You cover everything from organizing the coaches if there is a need for a group of members to go somewhere such as Winter Games. You try and make LufBru an involving and welcoming community to live in. In conclusion, to describe what you do as a social secretary is pretty simple, make Lufbru a home away from home. Keep us a family and help us make some of the best memories of our lives.
RELIGIOUS OFFICERS - The male and female ROs cater to respective gender groups of the society with regular religious/spiritual needs like Tadarus, Quranic Circle and Qiyyamullail. They also mastermind the planning of bigger and less frequent events like Khatam Al-Quran, talks and Tahlil Arwah. Each updates the society with external religious events and notifications (e.g. from LSUIS or BSU). Both contribute their efforts into other events as well trying to maintain a high standard of Muslim Community around. It is a good learning process! The MRO does have the extra duty of notifying the society with regards to the time and venue of the weekly Jummuah Prayer, But it’s just an e-mail :D
SPORTS SECRETARY - He/She just need to book weekly sport basis such as netball,indoor futsal and badminton. Also provide any other sports that been requested by other lufbru member such as table tennis, basketball, outdoor football and volleyball. Handling intra-society sports event on May and friendly match with other society.
IT COORDINATOR - He/She has the fun job of updating and ‘interestify’ the LufBru website, blog, facebook and twitter. Also helps the secretary manage the list of members and sort out the mailing list. Other than that, create posters, facebook events and adverts for LufBru events and then writes articles about the events carried out and keep a photo and video album around for a walk down memory lane.
We will be giving a gentle reminder regarding this again and also giving you the further details of AGM. Please do email us if you have any enquiries.
Regards,
Mohd Izzat Abd Samat
Chair 11/12
