Dear Potential Board of Director Candidate,
The AurGroup Credit Union is a not-for-profit organization that is owned by its members. The primary function of the credit union is to serve its members. The Board of Directors of the Credit Union is made up of volunteers to represent its membership, instead of a limited number of shareholders as with other financial institutions.
Volunteering to serve on the AurGroup Credit Union’s Board of Directors can be an extremely valuable experience. Not only will you gain experience and knowledge, but you will also be representing your fellow credit union members.
For 2018, AurGroup Financial Credit Union is seeking dedicated people to fill up to four (4) volunteer Board of Director positions serving a three-year term. It is the directors’ responsibility to set the credit union’s objectives and long-term goals. As a Board Member, you have the ability to be a voice for the AurGroup Credit Union members and help us maintain a strong financial future.
The Board may also appoint an Associate Board Member from the slate of candidates for Board of Director seats. The Associate Board Members are non-voting participants of the Board of Directors. Associate Board Members participate in all Board discussions and available committees. This is another way to volunteer with the Credit Union and become better acquainted with the Board activities.
Attached please find the job description, qualifications and a self-evaluation to give you additional information about the position. In general, we are seeking individuals with a desire to represent our membership and have understanding of the credit union philosophy, ability to understand basic financial statements, think and plan strategically and are team players. Experience in information technology, law, marketing, finance/accounting or a related field are helpful but not required. The time commitment for these roles is approximately 6-10 hours per month.
