Finance volunteer

We are looking to recruit a Finance Volunteer for our Newcastle and Gateshead Group.

As a Finance Volunteer, you would be joining a coordinating team of volunteers to plan and deliver services and activities to support people locally.

• You will maintain and approve income and expenditure records and explain financial information clearly to other group members.
• You would ensure our financial requirements and policies are followed, and that money is spent in a cost effective manner.

This is a great opportunity to gain experience with a large charity, develop your existing skills and learn new ones.

We need you to get involved and help make positive changes to the lives of people affected by MS.

This is a flexible role that usually involves no more than 2 hours work a week

Skills

• You’ll have an interest in the MS Society and the work that we do, as well as the enthusiasm to represent both us and our values locally.
• You will understand the needs of people affected by MS in your area and be sympathetic to the needs and motivations of volunteers.
• You’ll be comfortable with figures, preferably with an accounting or business background.
• You will live in the immediate area of the Group, allowing you to meet with other volunteers from the Group
