Regional Growth & Engagement Leader

Are you a natural connector?

Are you the woman who is always saying, “You two need to meet”?

Do you naturally connect people, make introductions, share resources and look for ways to help other women succeed? Do you enjoy networking, building relationships and expanding your circle of influence?

What if you could earn income, increase your visibility and grow your own professional network while doing more of what already comes naturally to you?

SHE Leads Group is seeking a Regional Growth & Engagement Leader to help grow and strengthen our South Carolina community of women in business.

This is a visible regional leadership position designed for a well-connected, relationship-oriented businesswoman who believes in women supporting women and enjoys bringing people together.

Purpose of the Role

The Regional Growth & Engagement Leader serves as the Founder’s on-the-ground regional representative, with a primary focus on membership growth, guest nurturing and conversion, chapter engagement, and helping ensure a consistently high-quality SHE Leads Group member and guest experience.

She is a visible member of the SHE Leads Group regional leadership team and works directly with the Founder.

Primary Areas of Responsibility

Membership Growth & Relationship Development

• Build relationships with women in business who may benefit from SHE Leads Group.
• Invite qualified prospective members to visit SHE Leads Group chapters and events.
• Personally follow up with every guest following a chapter visit or regional event.
• Nurture prospective members who are interested but not yet ready to join.
• Reconnect with former SHE Leads Group guests and invite appropriate prospects to re-engage.
• Help prospective members understand SHE Leads Group membership opportunities and the application process.
• Develop relationships and connections throughout the local business community.

Chapter Engagement & Member Experience

• Visit each regional chapter a minimum of once per quarter.
• Participate in chapter meetings alongside members and guests.
• Observe the overall member and guest experience and the chapter's delivery of SHE Leads Group brand expectations.
• Provide brief SHE Leads Group regional announcements during chapter visits.
• Reinforce established member expectations, including attendance, guest invitations, guest follow-up and participation.
• Complete a brief chapter observation report following each visit and communicate observations, successes and concerns directly to the Founder.
• Identify chapters and practices that are working particularly well so successful ideas can be recognized and shared.

Regional Visibility & Community Engagement

• Maintain a positive and professional presence for SHE Leads Group throughout the regional business community.
• Regularly share and engage with SHE Leads Group content on social media and in appropriate online networking communities.
• Contribute to SHE Leads Group's regional social media visibility.
• Attend quarterly regional Business After Hours and other key SHE Leads Group events whenever reasonably possible.
• Welcome, network with and follow up with guests attending regional events.

Leadership Without Chapter Management

The Regional Growth & Engagement Leader is an important member of SHE Leads Group's regional leadership team; however, this position does not supervise or manage chapter presidents, officers or members.

Chapter management, policy interpretation and enforcement, membership decisions, category conflicts, officer direction and operational decisions remain the responsibility of the Founder.

When the Regional Growth & Engagement Leader identifies a concern, her role is to observe, document and communicate the concern to the Founder, who will determine and implement any appropriate action.

The Woman We're Looking For

The ideal Regional Growth & Engagement Leader is:

• A natural connector who genuinely enjoys introducing people and creating opportunities for others.
• An active business owner or business professional who wants to expand her own sphere of influence.
• Relationship-oriented and comfortable initiating conversations with people she doesn't yet know.
• Consistent and dependable about following up.
• Professional, positive and respected by others.
• Comfortable networking both in person and online.
• Active and confident on social media.
• Supportive of other women and aligned with the mission and values of SHE Leads Group.
• Observant and comfortable sharing candid feedback with the Founder.
• Able to represent SHE Leads Group leadership while respecting clearly defined boundaries of authority.
• Self-directed and comfortable working as an independent contractor in a performance-based role.

Compensation & Benefits

This is a performance-based independent contractor position.

Compensation includes:

• 20% commission on new paid memberships during each new member's first 12 months of membership.
• 15% commission on renewing paid memberships.
• Annual performance bonuses based on net regional membership growth and established membership goals.
• Complimentary SHE Leads Group membership at a mutually agreed-upon membership level, up to EMPOWER Membership — a value of up to $1,020 annually.
• Increased professional visibility throughout the regional business community.
• Opportunities to significantly expand her personal and professional network while representing SHE Leads Group.
• A visible regional leadership position working directly with the Founder of SHE Leads Group.

Commission on EMPOWER memberships is calculated up to the Enterprise Membership level.

This opportunity is particularly well suited to a woman who is already actively connecting, referring and supporting others—and would enjoy being compensated while expanding the relationships and visibility that can also benefit her own business.
