We are a local charity providing social welfare advice, information and support, through a wonderful team of paid staff and volunteers and we are looking to appoint a new Treasurer to join our board and help steer the organisation in the right direction.

In 2023/24 we:

• Helped over 15,000 clients to find a way forward with their problems
• Dealt with over 37,000 separate issues for those clients
• Gained just under £2M of extra income for clients to help during the cost of living crisis

We are seeking someone who can represent the different Cheshire West communities and has the energy and enthusiasm to help us achieve our goal of improving people’s lives. Age, background, origins or health conditions are no barriers for joining our team of trustees as we are actively looking to include a variety of different perspectives on our board to best serve our community.

Prior experience as a charity treasurer is not necessary but we are looking for someone who has financial qualifications or experience and has some knowledge or experience of charity finances, fundraising, financial consequences and pension schemes.

You will need to be available to attend at least 5 board meetings a year (in person and remote), often in the evenings, plus one trustee development day each year and there are many opportunities for further involvement. The post of treasurer is a voluntary one but all reasonable expenses are reimbursed. Volunteering should not affect state benefit entitlement.

The closing date for applications is 9 August 2024 and interviews will likely be held week commencing 19 August 2024.
