New Committee Positions Available

We are thrilled to announce that we have some new Committee positions available!

Our branch has been growing in activity and we would like to thank everyone who has recently participated in the new mentoring scheme, branch meetings and discussions about rates in post sound!

To support the growth of the branch and to help us do more for members, we have created new roles within the Committee. The Committee meets regularly to discuss branch and union business and we work together to run the branch.

If you would like to get more involved in your branch, check out the new positions below and please email us at committee@theroughassembly.com if you are interested or would like to find out more.

Minutes Secretaries - POSITIONS FILLED

Minutes Secretaries write up the notes of committee and branch meetings.
