Who we are
Balance is a charity based in South West London. We have more than ten years experience providing employment and support services to a range of disabled and vulnerable people.
The role
As Treasurer you will occupy a key role in shaping what the charity does and how it does it. You will work closely with the Chair, CEO, Finance Director and other trustees in overseeing our financial governance and compliance with our legal and regulatory obligations.
In your role you would monitor the financial standing of the charity and take the lead in ensuring the Board meets its duty to ensure proper accounting records are kept, financial resources are controlled, invested and economically spent in line with governance, legal and regulatory requirements. This includes reviewing budgets, forecasts and management accounts, as well as the overarching strategic management of the organisation’s financial resources. You would be expected to constructively challenge the figures presented to enable greater transparency and accountability to improve the allocation of resources and the charity’s image in order to build the charity and its financial resilience.
Typically you will not be asked to dedicate more than a total of 4 hours per month which are largely at your discretion.
