Looking to give back to your community? We need treasurer help for our Board. We are a Credit Union that is forward looking and puts the members at the heart of everything we do.
Thistle Credit Union is led by a Board of Directors and includes a treasurer post, each with a diverse range of skills and expertise. The Board is accountable to all members and it is their role to define the strategy, approve business plans and to challenge and support the Chief Executive. The Board performs an assurance role and acts as an ambassador for members’ views. We are currently looking for a treasurer to support the board.
The role of Treasurer involves the following
Overall Responsibilities of Treasurer
The majority of the time will be involved in monthly board meetings which last about 2 hours however there will be further time committed to prepare and understand an extensive amount of financial and regulatory detail.
Ideally we would like a volunteer who has experience in dealing with regulatory bodies in the financial field but would love a professional who has a strong background in Finance, Compliance and Audit. This is a senior position on the board, so would suit someone who has previously worked at this level.
The Board of directors serves as a liaison between the membership and the organisation that serves them. Within the Board the treasurer role is essential to maintain an overview of the Credit Union’s financial affairs, ensuring its viability and ensuring that proper financial records and procedures are maintained.
Both volunteers and staff cover all aspects of day to day running of the organisation, input and define the strategic mission with feedback from the members and deliver the community business with pride and passion.
