Available Roles

There are loads of ways you can get involved in making Decom happen - the important thing is to just get involved.

If you want to have a full on involvement in the planning and preparation for the event, or just be a general dogs-body on the day - that's great - either works well for us!

There are generally two types of roles - Leads, and Volunteers.

Leads will assume responsibility for a specific remit, and will drive forwards the decision making and planning for that area. Volunteers then join the team to help them out in any ways they deem that they need help!  Simples!

Often an area will have several, joint leads, when the level of involvement deems it necessary.  For example - the job of co-ordinating all the people volunteering is quite a substantial one, so it takes a couple of people to do.

Obviously there are some key aspects which are true no matter what the position.

You need to be a good team player, and enjoy working with others.

And you also need to recognise that even if you take a Lead role responsibility, that this is still a group effort, and so you need to be good at gaining concensus and ensuring that everyone is represented.

Available roles

Leads

• Transport
• Elf & Safety  
• Install/Construction
• Strike co-lead 
• Fire 

Some of these open roles have "Job specs" already - check the menu above for a list of them.  We're working on job specs for the other roles too, to help you see what's involved.

Volunteers

We don't have any specific roles in mind yet, but that will change very shortly.

However, we ALWAYS need people on the day - i.e Friday 21st October, during the day, to help with setting up, and we always need people immediately after the event, at 6am on the morning of Saturday 22nd October, to help with strike.

There are always roles to be found in advance of the event in teams like Décor.
