This is a fantastic opportunity to join the fight against poverty.

We are looking for someone who is an amazing communicator, highly organised, and digitally savvy to help us end the need for foodbanks for good.

We are recruiting a Trustee - Treasurer (Volunteer) to the Board of Hebridean Pursuits Outdoor Learning (HPOL)

Who we are

Our current treasurer has been a trustee and treasurer for 14 years and plans to retire from his post in September 2025 at our AGM.

Our organisation is small, and so our trustees are involved in the management of the charity bringing their expertise to bear as required.

Our Board meets 4 times a year - mostly in Oban.

The Role

We are seeking to appoint a new trustee treasurer - someone with financial management skills, a passion for the outdoors, and shared determination to improve the lives of young people regardless of their background.
