| Your role is vital: you are on the front line in meeting, greeting, and involving new members. A number of resources are available to you, and the National Membership Officer (NMO) can provide help, advice, and guidance. Your Board and Regional Vice Chair (RVC) are also good sources of ideas, problem resolution & support, and the National Office (NO) staff can help in many ways.

| # Working with the '''National Office Membership Director''': The Membership Director is a professional, paid staff member at the National Office. The Membership Director and staff are responsible for membershiprelated issues, including admissions, prior evidence processing, Proctor communications, member benefits & services, processing change-of address requests, and providing answers to questions from local groups or individual members on member-related issues.
| |
| # Working with '''National Membership Officer''': The NMO is an appointed officer who serves on a volunteer basis much the same way as do your local Board and the other appointed board members. The NMO is responsible for various member-related issues, fostering programs designed to increase member engagement within Mensa, and retention of our members.
| |
| # Setting expectations with your '''local board''': It would be a good idea to discuss with your local board what their expectations may be regarding what responsibilities or duties your job entails. These expectations differ based on the needs and history of each local group. If you have different ideas than have been included in the role in the past, feel free to suggest new things. Your job as Membership Officer is what you make of it!
