The CCOF Board of Directors is seeking applications from individuals for appointment to the CCOF Certification Services, LLC Management Committee. The LLC Management Committee is appointed by the board and has the responsibility to control and manage the business and affairs of CCOF Certification Services, LLC.
The board looks for applicants who have a background in the organic industry (preferably with an understanding of organic certification) and who have experience in business management, including human resource, financial, and program management. It is important to note that CCOF-certified members are not eligible for appointment to the LLC Management Committee.
Committee members are appointed for three-year terms. While committee members are not compensated for their participation, they are reimbursed for their CCOF-related expenses. The LLC Management Committee meets once quarterly throughout the year, with other meetings and events occasionally scheduled as needed.
If you would like to learn more about participation on the LLC Management Committee, or if you are interested in completing an application for appointment, contact Cathy Calfo at ccalfo@ccof.org. In order to be considered by the Board of Directors at their November meeting, applications will be due October 31, 2016. Applications will also be accepted for appointment to the committee after the deadline to be considered on an ongoing basis. Read more about our structure on our website.
