Help us make a lasting difference for local families
Are you passionate about making a positive impact in your community? Do you want to use your skills to help ensure a local charity is financially strong, transparent, and forward-thinking?
Home-Start Barnet, Brent and Harrow is seeking a new Treasurer to join our committed Board of Trustees. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to the strategic direction and sustainability of a growing, values-led organisation that supports hundreds of families each year.
You don’t need to be a qualified accountant – just someone with good financial awareness, an eye for detail, and a desire to help shape our future.
What you'll do
As Treasurer, you’ll play a key role in the charity’s success by:
* Overseeing our finances – ensuring we are financially healthy and legally compliant
* Working with our CEO and Accountant – to review budgets, financial plans and monthly reports
* Supporting the board – by explaining financial information in an accessible way and guiding strategic decisions
* Chairing our Finance Subcommittee – held once every 12 weeks
* Ensuring good financial governance – making sure systems are in place for managing our income and spending
* Helping plan for sustainability – offering insight into full-cost recovery, funding gaps and long-term planning
Who we're looking for
We’re open to candidates from a variety of backgrounds – you may be a retired finance professional, someone in a leadership or strategic role, or looking for a first trustee position with a cause that matters to you.
You’ll ideally bring:
* Financial literacy and confidence with numbers
* Experience managing budgets, interpreting accounts or overseeing finances
* Strategic thinking, sound judgement, and a collaborative style
* An interest in supporting families and giving children the best start in life
Previous experience as a trustee is helpful, but not essential.
* Make a real difference to children and families across North London
* Join a friendly, values-driven board who are committed to learning and inclusivity
* Gain or deepen experience of governance, leadership, and charity finance
* Be part of an organisation that’s ambitious, caring, and community-focused
