Get involved as a volunteer! Message us here on Facebook if you are interested! Read below to find out a little more information.
We rely a great deal on the services of our valued volunteers who commit tirelessly to the success and sustainability of our Credit Union. These volunteers sit on the various Committees and our Board of Directors, so they are fundamental to our past, present and future. We need a team of volunteers dedicated to ensuring a strong and viable future for all of our members.
An individual can develop both personally and professionally by volunteering. The benefits of Credit Union volunteering include:
- Gaining skills and experience with a professional financial service provider
- Education and training
- Personal development
- Meet new people from the community
- Work on developmental and business projects
- Give something back to the community
Finance, information technology, management and communications skills are particularly welcome. However, any ability to make a contribution is appreciated. There are policies and training in place to support volunteers in their roles. In addition to the induction training program for all new volunteers, ongoing training is available and people are encouraged to develop various skills.
Credit Union committees offer an excellent starting point for new volunteers. These committees provide experience, learning and an active role within the credit union. Once a volunteer has served the Credit Union at the committee level for a period of time, and training needs have been identified and addressed, you can move into a director or supervisor position.
The Credit Union reserves the right to refuse a person as a volunteer and where appropriate will give a reason for that refusal as Community Credit Union is bound by the standards of Fitness & Probity, issued by the Central Bank of Ireland.
