The General Secretary (Gen Sec) is responsible for maintaining the club database, preparing meeting agendas and taking meeting minutes. Due to most of their responsibilities revolving around committee meetings or at the start of the year, they often act as a useful body for other members throughout the year.
The treasurer takes care of every day financials, from setting up payments for trips and training courses to making sure any expenses are paid quickly. They make sure the club always has enough money for its projects and have the important role of determining whether the club can afford any proposals.
The Diving Officer is responsible for the management of diving/snorkelling and training in the club in accordance with BSAC rules and standards. Basically, if it’s about diving and you’re not sure who to ask, speak to the DO. They will be able to answer your question or at least pass you onto the relevant Committee or BSAC member.
The DO works regularly with the Training Officers and the President of the club to ensure that we can train new divers.
