Treasurer Trustee opportunity for Trent Park Museum Trust
The Trust are seeking a passionate, committed and energetic person with experience in finance or accountancy to join this crucial stage of the project and to take on the role of Treasurer. This involves overseeing the financial affairs of the trust, ensuring that they are legal, constitutional and within accepted accounting practice.
Specific tasking will include:
Overseeing the cashflow forecast and financial projections
Ensuring that effective financial procedures are followed in authorising payments and managing receipts
Cash management in selecting and managing an efficient bank account structure
Managing the production of annual accounts.
The Treasurer is also supported by an Administrator, who operates the key business processes, prepares and files quarterly VAT returns and keeps basic financial records, ensuring that invoices from suppliers are correct and paid in a timely manner, all of which the Treasurer would review and oversee.
At this crucial stage in the project, this is an immensely exciting and rewarding project and a unique opportunity to be involved in something that will make a major contribution to the local area.
The Trustees would like to increase the diversity of the board. Previous board/trustee experience is not necessary, and we welcome applications from all ages and backgrounds.
The Board meets formally eight or nine times a year for two hours, but trustees give of their time to help with specific areas of their own expertise. During the development phase of the project this has been up to two days a month, but more engagement is always welcome and sometimes needed.
Application
