Treasurer/Trustee Advert

Birmingham Mind is a Mental Health Charity that is based in Birmingham and has a current turn-over of over £10M. We offer a range of services for people with mental health issues and those at risk of developing mental health issues.

We were formed in 1962 and we have had a long history of delivering value based services and having the person receiving the service at the heart of what we do.

We are now looking for a new Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees. We have a dedicated Finance Director and so the role of Treasurer is to help oversee the financial work of our Charity, not to be involved in the Day to Day running of the Finance Department.

We are looking for someone who has senior experience of Financial Controls – ie an Accountant or similar. Preferably we would like someone with an understanding of Charity finance, pensions and legal requirements but this is not essential. Adherence to the Values of Birmingham Mind is crucial.

Further information/conversation is welcome through either the CEO or Finance Director of Birmingham Mind.
