I wonder if this vacancy has anything to do with our lack of a major sponsor?

Do you mean al in terms of someone being fired for our lack of a major sponsor or this being a new position to help handle our new major sponsors when they eventually come on board?

I'd be great wouldn't it if this position is designed to be in place by the early feb to coincide with a major sponsorship announcement.

Either or, MT. Either way the club has identified a need for improvement in this area.  :thumbsup

(it could of course just be a vacancy created as someone moves on)

That would surprise me.

The role is a very basic service provider and more likely would deal with a 2nd and 3rd tier sponsors.
The major sponsors are normally looked after by the sponsorship manager.

The fact the role is vacant puts even more pressure on the more senior guys at the club - they are doing more than 1 job AND trying to land a major sponsor.

Talk about burning the midnight oil.

POSITION OBJECTIVE: This role requires a high level of operational acumen, focusing on delivering exceptional client service through leveraging all RFC sponsorship accounts and identifying opportunities to add value.
Mumbo jumbo right there IMHO.  :lol

KEY OBJECTIVES:

1. Key contact for servicing sponsor accounts
How hard is it to pick up the phone and talk it up! This is in the bag!  :gotigers

2. Primary match day organiser (Sponsorship Services)
Organising drinks and souvlaki – Hollywood on Bridge Rd just around the corner! What a great job!
Outsource everything! Food Drinks Menus Dinners Signage Entertainment – OUTSOURCE OUTSOURCE OUTSOURCE- the less amount of work for me the better.  :clapping

3. Assist in co-ordination of Club’s marketing activities
I can co-ordinate anything! Especially in a team where everyone else is doing the work
That’s easy! I can plan – just make up the ideas, plan them and get someone else to execute   :lol

4. Manage general administration and correspondence for Sponsorship Services department
I hope this means getting the club receptionists and the secretary’s to do the dirty work HAHAHAHAHA. This is easy!  :clapping

5. Assist with generation of sponsorship proposals/report writing and sponsor leads.

 :whistle

RESPONSIBILITES:

1. Key Contact for Sponsors
Yes well picking up the phone and stonewalling is easy. Common that’s easy. Is there a challenge here at all?  :laugh:

3. Timely and effective administration support
Well I would hope so! I’d be disappointed if the admin staff didn’t do a good job for the Sponsorship and Marketing Co-ordinator. Now where is that work people!  :lol

4. Ability to meet sponsorship deadlines and produce quality presentations.
Deadlines are easy! Quality Presentations are like Pizza – same crap different toppings. Just change the names and the dates and away you go! :lol

ESSENTIAL QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE:

1. Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Yes well I usually start sentences without capital letters! I wonder if that would hurt my application! :P

Avoidance of working with others will ensure a happy workplace! No open door policy here!  
 ;D

Proficient in Microsoft Office applications
Does the receptionist know how to mail merge? 8)

For the right salary anything is possible  ;D

5. Demonstrated ability to meet deadlines, work as part of a team and autonomously
I can meet deadlines, and work autonomously. I can prove it too! I started an internet operation and closed it in 7 months- met the deadline with distinction right there IMHO. I was working on my own when this conglomeration known as Tariffs was going under!  ;D

Yes! Yes! Yes! If you want ideas go to OER – Boy have I put up some doozies over the years!   ;D
