5. Ensure that key risks are identified, monitored, and mitigated effectively.

Your background might include:

• Professional experience in finance, accounting, or bookkeeping

• Supportive team: Work with a committed and welcoming board that'll have your back

• Professional development: Gain valuable charity governance experience
