We are looking for an individual with attention to detail and passion that aligns with the purpose of our charity and who can help to support our strategic direction and commercial success with a skillset that complements those of our existing Trustees.

We are looking for a Treasurer with proven experience in a relevant discipline, who can provide support with the following areas of effective financial management and control:

·         Governance and control: Ensuring compliance with all relevant financial rules and regulations

·         Budgeting and Monitoring: Ensuring the charity practices effective budgeting, reporting and monitoring protocols, with appropriate analysis and communication of potential risks to the sustainability of the charity

·         Strategy development: Working with the Board of Trustees and General Manager to shape the commercial strategy of the charity, fostering long-term sustainability and growth as appropriate

·         People support: Providing expert advice as necessary to the General Manager and Finance Assistant to ensure smooth and diligent operational practices.

Previous experience in environmental and/or third sector roles is welcome but not necessary, and nor do we consider it a requirement that you have previous experience as part of a Board or Executive Committee.

Most important to us, however, is having integrity, team-working ethic and a passion to help develop and grow our charity.

Preference may be given to individuals who are connected to our community and can have a presence on-site, but we are open to fully remote working for this role.
