What will you be doing?
Our Board of Trustees is made up of 11 trustees from a range of backgrounds including, health, social care, education and the private sector.
Demand for our services is higher than it has ever been. Cases are increasingly complex and resources stretched. Changes to the funding landscape, including the Integrated Care Board (ICB) and North East Combined Authority (NECA) present both challenges and opportunities for the organisation. As the ICB looks to make savings, new regional opportunities are arising with NECA, which require collaboration across a number of carer organisations.

What are we looking for?
We are looking for someone who is a qualified accountant who can oversee the organisation's finances and provide sound financial advise to aid the board of trustee in their decision making.
Ideally we are looking for a Treasurer who has lived experience as a unpaid carer, but this is not essential.
What difference will you make?
As Treasurer, this is a great opportunity to put your financial skills to use in a meaningful way, and work with a committed and motivated board of trustees and senior leadership team, to help meet the needs of unpaid carers and drive our strategic vision and priorities.
