The Trustee Treasurer role at Manchester Mind is an opportunity for a finance professional to add value and financial stewardship to a dynamic and successful mental health charity. The support of a strong finance team, committed service director and an engaged Board of Trustees provides the foundation for a term as Treasurer that can have a lasting impact.
The Trustee Treasurer role will become vacant at the next AGM (November 2016). As such, Manchester Mind are looking to co-opt a Trustee to the Board in advance to build their awareness of the roles of Trustee and Treasurer in advance of formal appointment at the next AGM.
The role of the Treasurer is to:
• Maintain an overview of the organisation's financial affairs
• Promote the financial viability and long term sustainability of the organisation; and
• Ensure that appropriate financial procedures are followed and accounting records maintained.
About you
The role provides an opportunity to give something back to the local community and use your skills and experience to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Manchester Mind welcomes applications from all sections of the community but to increase the skills mix and diversity of our current Board we would particularly welcome applications from:
• People with professional expertise in accountancy and fund-raising and/or a commercial or legal background.
• People with direct experience of mental health issues – either personally, as a carer or in a professional capacity.
• People from BME communities (who are currently under-represented at Board level).
The role would suit a range of people, from young professionals looking to broaden their leadership credentials to senior or retired professionals looking to give something back to their local communities.
About Manchester Mind
Manchester Mind is a local mental health charity registered with the Charity Commission (Registered Charity Number 1102058) and affiliated to the national charity Mind. Many people in Manchester are finding it harder to cope with everyday pressures they face - making ends meet financially, getting and staying in a job and caring for loved ones. The stress that people experience increases the chance that they will experience poor mental health.
