New District Lead Volunteer Search – Wolverhampton North Scouts

Date: 4th Feb 2024 Author: Dan Phillips

We am writing to inform you that James Steel wishes to step down as District Commissioner due to his recent new role as part of the County Lead Volunteer Partnership. The District Lead Volunteer (DLV) search group are actively searching for a new DLV. Wolverhampton North are looking to appoint a new dynamic volunteer manager(s) whose leadership will ensure that all of the Scout Groups are supported and developed to ensure young people are offered the best quality Scouting possible.

A search group has been formed and its members represent a cross section of the District. Their role is to identify and to consider recommendations for the role of District Lead Volunteer through nominations being actively sought. All nominations will be reviewed by the search group and a shortlist will be drawn up for consideration by the County Lead Volunteer Partnership.

How can I help?

We know that there are some amazing people within the District and the wider area, and we want to ensure everyone gets the opportunity to nominate people they feel could undertake this role and make a real difference to Scouting in Wolverhampton North.

Therefore, we now invite you to personally contribute to the search by submitting a nomination (or nominations) of persons whom you feel should be considered for this important voluntary appointment.

Who can I nominate?

Self-nominations are actively encouraged and welcomed; let’s be honest, if you believe that you can bring the right skills and expertise to the role in addition to being enthusiastic and motivated, then why not nominate yourself? If you don’t you may miss this rewarding opportunity if you are not nominated by someone else.

It does not matter if the individual you are nominating is new to Scouting as we have a training scheme, which provides comprehensive training to those new to, and already part of the Movement. The important aspect is for the individual to have the skills and leadership that will continue to move Wolverhampton North forwards.
