Treasurer (Board trustee/Non-executive director) and Chair of finance sub-committee

Are you interested in penguins?!  Falklands Conservation are looking for their next treasurer/Finance lead trustee and non-executive director. 

Falklands Conservation is a non-governmental organisation working to protect the wildlife in the Falkland Islands for future generations. We undertake practical conservation projects, surveys and scientific studies, conduct annual monitoring of seabird populations, rehabilitate oiled penguins, publish guides and information on many aspects of the Falkland Islands environment, and involve Islanders of all ages in our activities. 

Falklands Conservation is a UK registered charitable company started in 1998 when it took over the activities and assets of a charitable trust founded in 1979 by Sir Peter Scott.

This role is for a trustee who will act as global treasurer and be the lead trustee for finance, investments and audit.  Our next Treasurer will continue the oversight of our finances and investments, providing specific support and direction on all matters money-related.  They will advise the other trustees on these matters and support the finance team of the organisation.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who would like experience of a non-executive role on a board (an existing trustee will act as a mentor).  It's a unique opportunity to get involved in an international conservation charity that makes a real difference in a location where nature is in charge.

This is a voluntary role without remuneration.
