DMW Leadership Team - Vacancies

[OldBloke]

Hello, Pilots :byebye:

The image above depicts how the DMW Corporation is structured. There are four positions that need to be filled in order to complete the leadership team.

The joint responsibility of the leadership team is ...

To ensure the delivery of consistent, coordinated, team-based mission planning and associated support activities in a professional manner to the membership.

That sounds very grand but, in essence, it's business-as-usual for Dead Men Walking  

What we, the Board, would like you to do is to take a look at the roles on offer and then decide if you would like to help make our SC goals a reality. You can do this by asking to be considered for one (or more) of these positions. Applying is not a guarantee of acceptance, we will consider all applications carefully before deciding on who should be appointed and into what role. The full job descriptions are not yet fully fleshed-out so please regard the information below as a draft.

BUMP!

The number of applicants for these roles has been a little disappointing so I'm extending the deadline by a further week

To help you decide whether or not you should apply I will expand on a couple of points that members have brought up in conversation with me.

1. If you are accepted for one of the vacancies that does *not* restrict what you do for DMW in-game.

2. None of the roles on offer will be onerous tasks. Where, for example, 'log' is mentioned think 'on-line tool'. It will be the responsibility of all pilots to keep their data current. The Head will present that data when the leadership team are deciding upon mission plans.

3. The role of each and every Head will be so important to the game that, in terms of how our existing games are structured, they warrant a Game Leader status in their own right. No one role is more important or 'sexy' than any another. Every Head will have an equally important role to play at leadership meetings.

4. The game-mechanics are not yet fully exposed so treat those bullet-points below the job title as a best guess at this stage.

5. If you would be happy to take on one of the roles but would want to stand down when the game is released ... fine. We need your help now to get our processes and procedures documented so that we are in the best possible position for the release of Star Citizen.

So I would ask you all to take a look at what's on offer again and, please, help us ensure that we give our members the Star Citizen experience they expect and deserve.
