In February the management team decided to split specific roles between one another to help with organisation. Here is the list of branches each of us is responsible:

Community: Lukas

• Membership related management
  • entering/removing members
• Updates on social media (Facebook, Instagram etc.)
• Newsletter
• keeping the calendar up to date
• General contact for tutors

Inventory: Patrick

• Commissioning tools
  • Acquisition (Buying and donations/loans)
  • Dealing with broken tools
• Organise cleaning (e.g. via do-something hours)
• Reorder consumables (e.g. drinks, screws etc.)
• waste disposal

Financial: Mitja

• Contracts & Payment
• Tax and make sure we keep our charitability
  • Tätigkeitsbericht
• Funding applications

PR: Ciaran

This task list doesn't mean that person is working on this alone, but rather they keep on top of the organisation to make sure progress is made. If you have any questions or want to help with a specific task feel free to contact the manager in charge of it.
