Devon-based environmental charity seeking a treasurer to guide the charity's financial performance through an exciting period of growth.
What difference will you make?
The role of Treasurer is crucial to us. We need someone to keep us on track financially and ensure our viability. More importantly, we are looking for someone to help us achieve our vision for the future of trees and native broadleaved woodland on Dartmoor.
What are we looking for?
We seek a treasurer with a financial background and ideally with financial qualifications. Experience in the not-for-profit sector is preferred but not essential. We also want someone who embodies the qualities of a great charity trustee.
What will you be doing?
1. Liaising with the chief executive and bookkeeper to ensure proper accounting records are maintained, and financial resources are properly invested and spent economically.
2. Monitoring the financial administration of the charity and reporting to the board of trustees, including presenting annual financial statements.
3. Monitoring and advising on the financial viability of the charity and on the financial implications of its strategic plan.
4. Overseeing the charity’s financial risk management, policies, and ensuring robust controls are in place.
5. Acting as a counter signatory on cheques, online banking, and funder applications.
6. Collaborating with the independent examiner on issues such as the Auditors’ Management Letter and related board representations.
7. Potentially chairing a finance or audit and risk committee in the future.
