Serving in the Toastmaster officer roles is an education in leadership.  The following leadership roles are available at the club level:

President

The President serves as our club's chief executive officer.  They're responsible for the general supervision and operation of the club, and basically making sure all the other officers on the team do their jobs well.

VP Education

The Vice President Education is responsible for planning successful club meetings, and working with each member to ensure they achieve their educational goals.  In other words, the VP-Ed is the "General of the Schedule".

VP Membership

The Vice President Membership is responsible for directing an active membership-building program to continually bring new members into the club.

VP Public Relations

The Vice President Public Relations is responsible for promoting the club to potential members, and making sure that members know about current activities, events, and member achievements.  They're also responsible for our club newsletter.

Secretary

The Secretary is responsible for all the club's record-keeping.  From our membership roster and club officer information, to keeping minutes of our weekly meetings as well as Club Executive Committee meetings, the secretary's the one who's always taking notes.

Treasurer

The Treasurer is responsible for everything related to our club's funds.  They prepare a budget, maintain our bank accounts, handle reimbursement for club-related expenses, and manage the process of collecting dues every six months.

Sergeant at Arms

The Sergeant at Arms is responsible for maintaining our club equipment and meeting space.  They're the first to arrive and the last to leave each week, as they set up our meeting room and ensure everything's ready to go.
