Associate Board Member information

What is an associate board member?

Associate Board Members are individuals who serve on a nonprofit or corporate board in a non-voting or advisory capacity, often to gain experience and develop leadership skills. They typically support the main board by participating in committees, fundraising, and outreach activities. Associate Board Members are usually early- or mid-career professionals interested in nonprofit governance or contributing to an organization’s mission. While they may not have formal voting rights, their input is valued and helps shape the organization’s direction.

What are the responsibilities and expectations of an associate board member?

As an Associate Board Member, you are typically expected to participate in board meetings, contribute to committee work, and assist in fundraising and outreach initiatives. While you may not have full voting rights, you are encouraged to bring fresh perspectives and support strategic decision-making. Associate Board Members often serve as a bridge between the organization and younger or more diverse communities, helping to expand the nonprofit’s reach. This role offers valuable exposure to nonprofit governance and can serve as a pathway to full board membership.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as an associate board member?

To thrive as an Associate Board Member, you need a foundational understanding of governance, organizational strategy, and relevant industry knowledge, usually complemented by prior leadership or volunteer experience. Familiarity with board management platforms, financial statements, and compliance frameworks is often required. Strong interpersonal, communication, and problem-solving skills distinguish high-performing members who effectively contribute to board discussions and decisions. These skills are crucial for ensuring active participation, sound governance, and the achievement of the organization's mission.

Job description

Overview
As a Delivery Driver with Room & Board you do more than just "make deliveries," you create extraordinary experiences for our customers and act as a strong brand ambassador for both our high-quality products and reputation.
You're a confident, career-minded professional who thrives on variety in your work and truly loves interacting with customers. You'll find joy in the balance of making local deliveries while also contributing indoors in our warehouse. Your commitment to providing exceptional service will not only surprise and delight our customers but also enhance their experience with us.
You'll join a 42-person team comprised of: 18 delivery associates, 5 inventory associates, 4 repair associates, 5 merchandise quality associates, 5 customer support associates and 5 leaders. As a member of a 3-person delivery team, you'll rotate between delivery and warehouse responsibilities. In the delivery role, you'll alternate between driving and assisting, delivering high-quality, American-made home furnishings to customers throughout the LA metro and Orange County areas. Every two months, you'll spend about a month in our delivery center in the merchandise quality role, preparing products to ensure they meet our high standards before reaching customers. Additional warehouse responsibilities include: product staging, assembly, and quality inspections. This is a dynamic, hands-on role for someone who enjoys variety, teamwork, and delivering exceptional customer experiences.
Rotating Schedule: When you're working on the truck delivering, you'll have a Tuesday - Saturday schedule. When you're in the warehouse, you'll have a Monday - Friday schedule. To allow you to easily balance your other life priorities, we build out schedules for an entire month and release them a month in advance.
  • Delivery: Tuesday - Saturday, 5:45am - 2:15pm, with paid overtime
  • Merchandise Quality: Monday - Friday, 6:30am - 3pm, with paid overtime

Location: 1390 Storm Parkway Torrance, CA 90501
The qualities we look for in a Delivery Driver:
  • You are genuine and take pride in providing exceptional customer service
  • You enjoy being in a physically active role and bring core strength, agility and stamina
  • You place a high priority on safety and contribute to creating the safest workplace possible
  • You're an effective communicator
  • You're thoughtful, resourceful and a natural problem solver
  • You value a workplace built on relationships of mutual respect, accountability and trust
  • You want more than a "job"; you want to be part of a company where your role has meaning, teamwork is real and you contribute to something bigger.

Additional requirements to be a Delivery Driver:
  • A genuine passion for serving customers, demonstrated through prior experience in a customer-facing delivery or customer service role, is highly valued and preferred
  • At least 21 years of age with a valid driver's license
  • Ability to drive a 24-foot box truck (training provided)
  • Able to lift/carry heavy items with the assistance of a team member and/or proper lifting equipment
  • Proficiency in spoken and written English is required to ensure effective communication with your delivery partner, internal teams and customers
  • Able to pass pre-employment requirements, including a 5-panel drug screen (no THC)
  • Ability to provide proof of identity and legal work authorization upon hire

What we offer our Delivery Drivers:
  • Compensation: $26.44 - $29.33 / hour (approximately $55,000 - $61,000 annually) With occasional paid overtime. Compensation offered is based on experience/qualifications.
  • Benefits that focus on holistic well-being. The whole person matters, not just the one who shows up for work. That's why we invest in holistic well-being that supports and encourages you to live a full life. Besides a competitive paycheck, we offer several awesome perks to help you thrive in every aspect of life. Picture this: three weeks of paid vacation, a generous 401(k) match, profit-sharing, and a whole bunch of cool extras. We're talking about benefits that cover you from head to toe - physically, emotionally, and financially.
  • Meaningful work. We create a meaningful work experience by empowering everyone to contribute, taking pride in everything we do, and making the world sustainable, inclusive and beautiful.
  • A culture of respect. We sustain a culture of respect by relying on our shared values, building supportive and kind teams, and ensuring all voices are heard and celebrated.
