Full-Time Membership Assistant

Full-Time (Monday–Friday, mostly daytime hours with some evening or weekend events)
About the Role:
Do you love connecting with people and being involved in your community? The Membership Assistant is a key part of our Chamber team helping local businesses grow, thrive, and stay connected. From welcoming new members to helping plan events that bring our community together, this role makes a real difference every day.
If you’re organized, friendly, and enjoy working in a fast-paced, community-focused environment, we’d love to meet you!
What You’ll Do:
- Be a friendly face and first point of contact for Chamber members and visitors.
- Help with membership activities: processing new members, renewals, and keeping our records up to date.
- Assist with planning and running Chamber events, meetings, and networking opportunities.
- Create and share engaging updates from newsletters to social media posts.
- Help maintain the Chamber website and membership database.
- Support Chamber programs that strengthen our local business community.

What We’re Looking For:
- Comfortable using computers and common software (Microsoft Office, email marketing tools, social media).
- Strong communication skills — both written and verbal.
- Detail-oriented and great at managing time and multiple tasks.
- Friendly, positive, and enjoys working with people.
- Experience in customer service, office administration, or event planning is a plus!
Why You’ll Love Working Here:
You’ll be part of a small but mighty team that supports local businesses and builds community connections. No two days are exactly the same - one day you might be helping plan a ribbon cutting, and the next you’re welcoming new members or helping promote an upcoming event. It’s meaningful, people-centered work where you can see the impact you’re making right here at home.
