ABOUT STEP OUT MENTORING
Step-Out Mentoring is an early intervention mentoring organisation that provides support for children and young people in the heart of South London through outdoor based 1:1 mentoring and group workshops.
We work with children and young people aged 8-18 who are disengaged with education and/or life and struggling with isolation and loneliness. We work to support them in forging a way through life, encouraging them to thrive and become positive change makers in their communities.
We are at an exciting stage in our organisation where we are setting up a new board of trustees to help us develop to the next stage. Our trustee board is enthusiastic and has a strong, positive culture.
We are seeking a treasurer to join our board of trustees. The role of the treasurer will be to present financial reports to the board in a format that helps the board understand the charity’s financial position, advising the board on how to carry out its financial responsibilities, working with professional advisors, overseeing the preparation and scrutiny of annual accounts and taking on some of the day to day financial duties, such as book-keeping, budgeting and preparation of reports.
