Mammal Society – Honorary Treasurer
Our current treasurer is due to retire later this year. We are looking for a replacement to work with fellow trustees, share our passion for British wildlife and contribute to their conservation.
We are seeking someone with the right skills, experience, commitment and enthusiasm to join our friendly team as Honorary Treasurer to:
- Oversee the financial administration of the charity;
- To keep fellow Trustees on fully appraised of the charity’s financial position;
- Manage the charity’s finances effectively in line with best practise for the sector;
- Be part of a charity that is working to save British Mammals;
- Be part of the development of a charity whose beneficiaries’ need is greater than ever.
NB. We do require any applicants to be qualified accountants, preferably with some experience of working in the charity sector.
The Mammal Society is the national voice campaigning for conservation that benefits mammals. A relatively small charity, the Society has a large and unique role in bringing together professional scientists who study all mammals with members of the public who share an interest in them.
As detailed on the Charity Commission website: ‘The Mammal Society works to protect British mammals, halt the decline of threatened species and advise on all issues affecting British mammals. We study mammals, identify the problems they face and promote conservation and other policies based on sound science’.
Wildlife needs our help. Our research shows that one quarter of our 48 native mammals are at risk of extinction, and we need urgent, effective action to reverse the loss of biodiversity. The Mammal Society strategic plan sets out our vision for the future where society values and protects our native wildlife and recognises the benefit that nature brings to everyone.
