The Role

The Membership Support Officer (MSO) role provides support to our branches across Essex and to the Essex County Committee.  In addition to administrative and organisational support, the MSO works closely with the Area Manager for East Anglia & Essex and the Essex County Chairman to ensure that Membership fulfil their role within the Area Strategy and in accordance with the Legion’s Membership handbook and policies.

This post is part time, working 21 hours per week on a 12 month fixed term contract (Maternity Cover).  It is a varied role which covers a range of duties, from arranging meetings and minute taking to organising events and responding to membership queries. There is another MSO already established in Essex.  You’ll be receiving support and working alongside her for part of the week, sharing responsibilities and coordinating work.

The successful candidate will ideally have a knowledge and understanding of Legion membership and will be an effective, diligent multi-tasker with excellent customer service and communication skills.

This role will be based from home with regular travel to our offices in Chelmsford & Colchester.  There will also be occasional travel across Essex and to locations further afield. A full driving license and access to a vehicle is therefore desirable.
