Longtime IBMA staff member Jill Crabtree has given notice of intent to depart from the IBMA but she says not from Bluegrass. According to the press release sent out by the IBMA, her last day will be no later than July 1, 2013.
In her resignation letter Crabtree said,
“I care about the future of IBMA a great deal and hope the events will thrive in Raleigh, NC. The facilities, performances and other events planned for World of Bluegrass Week will certainly be something to see and the potential is exciting. But with any big change comes a need to approach things in a new manner. I feel the organization will benefit from the fresh perspective of someone who can assist the current IBMA leadership with their new set of goals. I’ve learned a great deal in my tenure at IBMA and want to thank everyone who has supported me over these past 13 years. My passion and support of the bluegrass music community will certainly continue.”
IBMA is currently accepting resumes through April 15, 2013 for the Convention & Membership Services Director position on their staff. Individuals interested in applying are invited to email a resume to nancyc@ibma.org or drop one off at the IBMA office at 608 W. Iris Drive, Nashville, TN 37204.
Applicants should have skills in the following areas: accounting, logistics, event planning, database management, web design, contract negotiation, office management and committee work. Experience with Access, Quickbooks and WordPress is important.
“We’ll certainly miss Jill,” said IBMA Executive Director Nancy Cardwell. “She has worked tirelessly for the organization and contributed greatly to much of what we’ve accomplished since 2000. We wish her well.”
