The role of Treasurer is voluntary, and one that will be rewarding, interesting and varied for anyone keen to support the wider third sector in the local community and benefit the Scottish Borders and its residents.

Currently, the Board of Trustees meet six times a year, normally for no more than two hours, during working hours. There is also an AGM once a year.

The Treasurer is not responsible for the accounts administration - the role is one of review and reporting on the accounts, working with the CEO and others to provide advice and a thorough understanding of the financial position of the organisation to the Board of Trustees and ensuring the security of the charity long term.

The Board is seeking a professional in the area of finance, business or accounting who would have the skills to help report on the financial position of the charity and provide valuable advice in terms of risk, business planning and enterprise developments going forward.

The post will be one of a team of development officer posts specifically intended to work closely with Third Sector Organisations (TSOs) throughout the Inner Moray Firth.
