What will you be doing?

Art & Soul is a Richmond-based charity with over 20 years’ experience improving mental health and community connection through creativity. We’ve delivered 300+ therapist-led workshops and 20+ exhibitions, with each session showing an average 34% uplift in wellbeing (UCL Wellbeing Measure). We are seeking a Treasurer to provide financial oversight and guidance as we grow. This role includes:

What are we looking for?

We’re looking for a qualified or part-qualified accountant, or someone with equivalent financial experience. Knowledge of charity finance (SORP) is desirable but not essential. Previous Trustee or Treasurer experience is welcome, though not required – we’ll provide a supportive induction. We particularly welcome candidates who:

What difference will you make?

As Treasurer, your expertise will directly support the sustainability of a charity that transforms lives through creativity. You will ensure strong financial stewardship, enabling Art & Soul to continue offering safe, inclusive spaces where people improve wellbeing, build resilience, and connect with their community.
