Treasurer Needed

As the tenure of our existing treasurer reaches an end, we are seeking a treasurer to join our voluntary Board of Trustees.

At this exciting time in the life of Walworth Garden, we are seeking an experienced Treasurer to join our dynamic Board of Trustees. The Treasurer will play a key role in supporting the Charity’s financial health, working closely with the Finance Manager, CEO, and fellow trustees.

As we prepare to launch an Environmental Learning Centre, this is a unique opportunity to contribute to a period of growth and innovation, ensuring robust financial systems and guiding strategic decisions that will help shape the future of the Garden. This includes overseeing budgets, financial planning, and annual accounts, ensuring robust systems and controls are in place, and guiding the board on financial decisions and policy. The Treasurer will also chair the Finance, Audit & Risk Committee (FAR) and liaise with auditors as needed.

We are looking for someone with a strong financial background and relevant qualifications, ideally with experience in charity accounting, budgeting, and risk management. Excellent organisational and communication skills, along with a commitment to Walworth Garden’s mission and strategic goals, are essential. This is a voluntary role, with a minimum time commitment of around four hours per month, attending six board meetings a year and carrying out responsibilities as needed.
