Technology Support Needed


Hi Folks!


We need a member to help support our local boating club that has a Technology background or Technology knowledge. We have all of our systems in place but need support in maintaining them and at times, making changes.


Our email communications are supported by Google Workspace and announcements use Constant Contact. Our Website is developed using WIX and we use Google Drive to store and manage all of our documents.


We have a training program that would start in August that covers all of our basic systems.

 

Become a part of our great volunteer team and help support the Hilton Head Boating Club!


Please send your background information or a resume to me at:

We’re looking forward to having you help support the local Hilton Head Club!


Warm regards,

Glenn Crews
