Hi there!

It is Rúna here, the Seneschal of Krae Glas. The laws of Lochac and the laws of common sense mean that I need to find a deputy within six months of stepping up. It is not that point yet, but I want to get ahead and have two fairly onerous offices already.

If you think you could help or want to discuss this, let me know! Further details below.

To be my deputy, Kingdom law requires that you:

Be a member of the SCA (if this would be financially difficult, we can sort it out)

Be 18+

Be willing and able to perform the duties of the office, which principally include being and willing to take over the office of Seneschal at short notice for up to several weeks

Maintain privacy and confidentiality

I am able to appoint a deputy as I see fit and we'll agree on your duties and tenure together.

Here’s what I’m currently thinking:

Tenure: 1 year. After that, I plan to actively search for the next Seneschal of Krae Glas and I’d like to have a deputy to train into that role. If that is you, excellent, but I would want to have that discussion rather than have unspoken expectations from either of us or the Barony.
Workload: 1-2 hours per week, unless you choose to take on extra projects or there’s an emergency.
Duties:
1. Attend Council meetings, which are currently once a month on Tuesday evenings (up to 2 hours).
2. Be ready to step in as Seneschal at short notice for up to several weeks.

I also have some duties that can be easily delegated. You can take on some or none of them: minutes taking for Council meetings, following up on reports, event stewarding or helping event stewards, following up on action items, helping with handovers of officers and/or listening to me vent.

Ideal person: I will not consider any applications from post-pandemic Seneschals of either Barony. I would like either someone who is either entirely new blood or a member of the older guard with some cultural competence.

Let me know if you're curious. I would love to chat more.
