3 elected officers, one Executive Committee

Under our Exeter constitution, there are three officer roles elected by the membership each year at the Annual General Meeting. Each carries out a specific role and together, the three officers make up the Executive Committee of Exeter Green Party. The Committee carries the responsibility for operational decisions and for ensuring that the Party is legally compliant, and works as effectively as possible.

The three officers are well supported by a whole range of other specialist volunteers, from ward-based support volunteers, through to IT systems work, communications, fundraising, administrative and organisational roles and more.

This is something that one or more people (role-shares warmly welcomed) can take on alongside say a full-time job.

See details on the three roles below. If you are interested or want to know more please email coordinator@exeter.greenparty.org.uk and we will get in touch for an informal chat. If you decide you wish to put yourself forward please email the same address confirming this no later than 6pm 9th July.

Elected officer roles

The postholder also supports the Election Agent and Data Manager to deliver on tasks associated with their roles.
