RSGB Lecture Coordinator vacancy

The RSGB facilitates just over sixty lectures each year in a mixture of in-person, hybrid and remote formats. Fifty of these are at the RSGB Convention, and eleven are delivered through the livestreamed Tonight@8 webinars programme of events.

This set of presentations aims to cover a wide mix of amateur-radio-related subjects, across all depths of amateur radio experience and knowledge. They are watched and admired by RSGB members and non-members across the world.

The RSGB’s recent Lecture Coordinator Keith Hotchkiss, G0FEA has stepped back from the role to focus on his professional commitments, so the RSGB is looking for someone new for this volunteer role.

The Lecture Coordinator will be part of the Tonight@8 and Convention teams. They will be proactive and collaborative, bringing ideas for presentations that educate and inspire radio amateurs to try something new, learn more about interesting topics and expand their knowledge of amateur radio.

They will lead the invitation and scheduling process for Tonight@8 webinars and will contribute to the decisions about Convention presentations. They will also be the main contact with Convention presenters, inviting them to speak, updating the speaker project plan and helping to create a balanced programme.

Reporting to the Convention Chair, the Lecture Coordinator would be a member of the RSGB Convention team but would not be required to take responsibility for organising and managing other aspects of the RSGB Convention.

If you’re interested in the role or would like to find out more, please contact the RSGB General Manager Steve Thomas, M1ACB via gm.dept@rsgb.org.uk
