�� Join Our Mission as Treasurer – Help Rescue Vulnerable Children in Nepal! ��

Are you an accountant looking to use your financial expertise for a powerful cause? We are seeking a passionate Treasurer to join our dedicated board and help transform the lives of vulnerable children in Nepal.

Who We're Looking For: 
✅ Finance professionals - whether formally qualified (AAT, CIMA, ACCA, ACA), part-qualified, or experienced through practice 
✅ Strong analytical skills and ability to translate financial insights into clear, strategic action 
✅ Passion for making a real-world impact through good governance and financial stewardship

✨ Be part of a dynamic, supportive team committed to child protection.
✨ Shape financial strategy for an inspiring international charity
✨ Gain valuable trustee experience with flexible commitments (6 meetings/year + remote tasks).
✨ Potential to visit our life-changing projects in Nepal!

Are you passionate about building a more inclusive, sustainable and resilient economy? Are you looking for a meaningful way to use your finance expertise?

ECU is a small, dynamic non-profit working to transform the economy so that everyone has the freedom and security to live a good life. 

ECU’s board members are responsible for ensuring that ECU is well-run and delivers on our ambition to accelerate the transition to a fair, sustainable and resilient economy. They are responsible for fulfilling the legal duties of a Company Director, as set out by Companies House. Although ECU is not a charity, it is focused on delivering a public purpose, so most aspects of the role are similar to that of a charity trustee role.

We are now recruiting for ECU’s first Treasurer, who will lead at board level on monitoring ECU’s financial performance and sustainability, ensuring that we have robust financial policies and processes in place, and supporting other board members to fulfil their collective responsibilities around finance. 

This is an exciting time to join ECU. We have an ambitious vision for change, a strong analysis of the opportunities and barriers to progress, and a clear view of our role in building a better economy. Our board is committed, collaborative and inclusive, with a strong understanding of its role and remit, and a culture of open dialogue. Our work is challenging, fascinating, and fulfilling – and, with rising levels of inequality, an unfolding climate emergency, overstretched public services and a growing concentration of corporate power, it couldn’t be more important.
