Volunteer roles

The Treasurer will play a pivotal role in helping PRDA build a stronger, more resilient organisation so that we can support more people living with the long-term effects of pelvic radiotherapy.

What will you be doing?

PRDA is entering an exciting new phase of development. Over the past two years we have expanded our services, grown our income, increased our partnerships with healthcare professionals and strengthened our support for people living with Pelvic Radiation Disease. We now have a small staff team supported by a committed Board of Trustees, and we are focused on building a financially sustainable organisation that can continue to grow its reach and impact.

Our Board currently consists of six trustees and a Chair, bringing together expertise from healthcare, patient advocacy, communications, governance and the charity sector. We work collaboratively and maintain a close, supportive relationship with the staff team. While the Board's primary role is strategic, we are a small charity where trustees are encouraged to share their expertise and contribute in practical ways when appropriate.

Our current Treasurer will be stepping down at the end of 2026, creating an exciting opportunity for someone to help shape the next stage of PRDA's journey.

As Treasurer, you will work closely with the Chair, our Operations Manager and fellow trustees to provide strategic financial oversight. You will help the Board understand the charity's financial position, oversee budgeting, reserves and cashflow, review financial reporting and support good financial governance. You will also play an important role in ensuring the charity continues to meet its regulatory responsibilities and can make informed decisions as we continue to grow.

Our Board meets online four or five times a year, together with an annual in-person strategy day. Between meetings, the Treasurer will provide occasional advice and support to the Chair and staff team on financial matters and funding opportunities as required.

Over the next three years we have ambitious plans to expand our patient support services, strengthen our education for healthcare professionals, increase awareness of Pelvic Radiation Disease and diversify our income so that our services remain sustainable for the future. This is an opportunity to join a Board at a time when thoughtful financial leadership will directly influence how quickly and effectively we can achieve those ambitions.

Perhaps most importantly, this is a chance to join a friendly, engaged Board where your contribution will be genuinely valued. In a small charity like PRDA, trustees are close to the organisation's work and can clearly see the difference their expertise makes.

What are we looking for?

Person specification 

• Empathy with PRDA’s mission and the people we support
• Demonstrable experience of relevant financial management skills
• Understanding of charity finance and statutory requirements
• Able to communicate financial information to those without finance background
• Sound judgement, integrity and a commitment to good governance
• Strategic thinker
• Creative thinker and solutions minded
• Collaborative, respectful approach and willingness to challenge constructively

What difference will you make?

The Treasurer will play a pivotal role in helping PRDA build a stronger, more resilient organisation so that we can support more people living with the long-term effects of pelvic radiotherapy.

Demand for our services continues to grow as awareness of Pelvic Radiation Disease increases and more people seek information, support and advocacy. At the same time, charities face an increasingly challenging funding environment, making sound financial leadership more important than ever.

Your expertise will help ensure the Board has the financial insight and confidence to make strategic decisions about investing in new services, developing partnerships and securing the organisation's long-term sustainability. By providing robust financial oversight and constructive challenge, you will help us balance ambition with responsible stewardship of our resources.

This role offers the opportunity to influence the future of a charity that is still relatively small but growing rapidly. Your advice will directly inform decisions about how we develop our services, respond to new opportunities and maximise the impact of every pound we raise.

Ultimately, your contribution will enable PRDA to reach more patients and families, provide more high-quality information and peer support, strengthen education for healthcare professionals and continue advocating for earlier diagnosis and better care for people affected by Pelvic Radiation Disease.

Unlike trusteeship in many larger organisations, your impact at PRDA will be visible. You will work alongside a committed Board and staff team who value collaboration, welcome new ideas and recognise the importance of good governance in achieving meaningful change.

This is an opportunity to use your financial expertise to help ensure that no one faces Pelvic Radiation Disease alone, and that PRDA continues to grow into a stronger, more sustainable charity capable of improving lives across the UK.
