Treasurer Trustee

Overview

The Treasurer is a member of the Board of Trustees with specific oversight of the charity’s financial management. While day-to-day financial administration is carried out by employees or external providers, the Treasurer works closely with them and the Board to ensure sound financial governance. The Treasurer provides financial leadership, helps trustees understand the organisation’s finances, and ensures that the charity meets its financial and statutory obligations.

Our board meet once a month (either virtually or in person) for around 90 minutes. We aim to have strategy days twice a year. You will also meet with the CEO and Finance Manager once a month, and be available for ad hoc emails, advice. Trustees are usually appointed for a three-year term, which can usually be extended.

Whilst some knowledge or experience of charity finance is required, we do not expect you to have been a Treasurer before. We will provide access to training about charity finance and the Treasurer role as needed
