Tarner is a small charity in the centre of Brighton, serving community needs, through a community project working with children and young people. www.tarner.org.uk We manage a park and designated play areas using our bespoke community venue to work with around 500 children ( 4-11) and over 800 young people a year.
We run community events and produce art work with our children and young people. through positive play and informal learning opportunities we enable children and young people to thrive and transition to adulthood in a kind, caring and stimulating project.
What does the opportunity involve doing?
We require someone to work with the board and CEO to help us keep clear simple financial records.
Our trustees also have the opportunity to volunteer at community events and represent us at networking events across Brighton and Hove,
Training can be given and our board of trustees are a great group who meet bi monthly for under 2 hours a month to oversee our work and support us to meet regulation requirements and build on our successes.
Please can interested email their details to jenny@tarner.org.uk
Please say how you prefer to be contacted i.e. telephone, face to face, teams/zoom or 1:1.
What induction, training and support is offered?
We will work with our new trustee to identify bespoke support and training that they may benefit from, all out of pocket expenses are paid in a timely way and we work with a book keeper, have a simple budget program, an office manager who manages day to day expenditure and income. We are audited by an independent accountant.
Our treasurer will ideally be someone who has money management or budget experience, it would be beneficial if they come from the area, but any candidate with the right experience and attitude will be warmly welcomed and supported.
What skills or qualities are needed?
Experience of running clear simple budgets that can be understood by a lay person.
An accountancy qualification is not essential as we are independently audited.
This role could be dine from home, but we believe that working in a group creates a stronger more representative project and can be creative.
