New Manager Roles

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

  • Keep an eye on the budget (e.g. new tools)
  • Contracts & Payment
  • Tax and make sure we keep our charitability
    • Tätigkeitsbericht
  • Funding applications

PR: Ciaran

  • Networking, sponsorships & cooperations
  • Future location
  • Event support
  • Seminar schedule

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.

Collaboration possibilities

Do-something days

Project Push Sessions

Ciaran is piloting an idea... Project Push days are days where you can push your project forward with the support of the CoMakingSpace community. We'll support you while capturing and documenting the progress. With your permission, the documentation would be used to show what’s possible at the CoMakingSpace and so, hopefully, encourage new members to join our growing community. Trial start on 11-12 May. Keep an eye on the calendar for further dates.
