We are a national school operating under the patronage of Educate Together and we are looking for a Treasurer to join the Board of Management as soon as possible. This would ideally be for the duration of the Boards term until November 2027.
The role of the treasurer is outlined in the guidelines for boards of management but essentially it involves linking with the principal around investment, fundraising spending and then preparing a budget and a monthly report to the Board (we meet roughly once a month in the evenings. There would also be regular enough contact with the school secretary who inputs a lot of the information to our software package. Accounts are certified by an outside accountant each year and submitted to the FSSU.
We would hope that as well as the invaluable treasurer role that the community representative would enjoy good discussions around the development of the school in terms of practices and policies. We have enjoyed a very cohesive and productive Board for the last four year term and look forward to another with some new perspective for the next four year term.
Experience in Accounting would be favourable.
We are based in Stepaside, Dublin 18.
Please send a cover letter to the email address listed outlining a bit about yourself and why you might be suitable for this role.
