Closing Date: Open. Based: Sandhurst, Berkshire, GU47 8HN
Do you have financial skills and enthusiasm to help an organisation that supports good mental health?
You could be the next Treasurer for Sandhurst Counselling Services, a small and effective charity based in Sandhurst, Berkshire.
The charity evolved from a drop-in service started in August 1990 by St Michael’s church in Sandhurst, and provides a safe confidential space for anyone feeling anxious, stressed, depressed, hopeless or lost, to help people find their way. The charity is “a counselling service with a Christian ethos”, an unincorporated Charitable Trust, is registered with BACP, and has an income of c 70k p.a.
Although we’d welcome a financial qualification, that’s not a prerequisite, as our finances aren’t too complex. An understanding of how charity finance works would be beneficial, and the ability to clearly communicate our financial information to other trustees is very important. Liaison with the Administration Manager, who deals with the general bookkeeping, maintenance of a statistical database and day-to-day matters, is important. As well as a general understanding of finances and accounts preparation, management of Excel spreadsheets (primarily used for our statistical analysis) is important.
