What are we looking for?
It would be an advantage to have appropriate financial qualifications but you might also be working towards a financial qualification. We are open to helping people gain experience and achieve their own goals while being a trustee. Experience of working as a trustee and of working in a not-for-profit arts organisation would be an advantage but not essential. Someone who enjoys planning ahead and thinking strategically. You will need to have appropriate digital and IT skills. Good communication skills. Enjoys developing and being part of teams. There is an opportunity to build more understanding about health and social care or you may already have an interest or experience on this area already.
What difference will you make?
The Treasurer is a key role within our trustee team. We are seeking someone who will have the skills and experience to keep us on track financially. But we are also seeking someone who cares about the people we serve and wants to work with other trustees to ensure we maintain a good quality service while also being able to take advantage of opportunities to grow and reach more people. If you have or have had lived experience of being a carer for loved one with dementia or have yourself benefited from the support from a service like ours this would be a real value but it is not essential.
