Job description

Join Us as Treasurer – Help Build Financial Sustainability for Life-Saving LGBTQI+ Support

Naz and Matt Foundation is looking for an experienced Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees and help secure the future of our life-saving work supporting LGBTQI+ individuals from religious and culturally conservative backgrounds.

Since 2014, we've provided vital support to thousands of LGBTQI+ individuals facing family rejection, honour-based abuse, and threats because of their sexuality or gender identity. As we continue to receive unprecedented demand for our services, we need a skilled financial leader to help us build long-term sustainability and navigate our next chapter with confidence.

This is a unique opportunity to use your financial expertise to protect and strengthen a small charity doing essential frontline work – work that literally saves lives.

  • DBS Check Required: Yes

  • Reports to: Chair of Trustees (board role)

Who We Support
Our services support LGBTQI+ individuals - often experiencing rejection, abuse, or pressure to conform - from families where religion or culture plays a significant role. We also support parents who are struggling to accept their LGBTQI+ children.

As Treasurer, you’ll be helping to safeguard the future of this vital work by ensuring we remain financially sound, compliant and well-equipped to grow.

  • Act as the main point of contact on financial matters between the Board, the CEO, and our external accountants

  • Help set, review and monitor the annual budget

Oversight and Governance

  • Work with the CEO and external accountants to oversee the preparation of management accounts, annual financial statements, and reporting to the Charity Commission

  • Support the preparation of accounts for our annual independent examination

  • Present financial updates at quarterly Board meetings in an accessible, transparent way

Risk and Compliance

  • Ensure financial risks are appropriately identified and managed

  • Monitor cash flow and reserves policy

  • Ensure compliance with SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice) and Charity Commission requirements where applicable

Person Specification

  • Demonstrable experience of managing finances or acting as Treasurer for a small charity or nonprofit

  • Strong understanding of charity accounting and financial reporting requirements in the UK

  • Familiarity with working alongside external accountants or independent examiners

  • Ability to communicate complex financial information to non-financial audiences

  • We are lived experience charity, and welcome applicants who have experience of:

    • Being LGBTQI+ or a parent of an LGBTQI+ child

    • Mental health or suicide prevention work

    • Growing up in a religious or culturally conservative environment

  • Passionate about supporting communities affected by family-based LGBTQI+ rejection

  • Based in the UK and legally able to volunteer

  • Willing to undergo a DBS check

What You’ll Gain

  • Use your financial expertise to support a mission that saves lives

  • Join a welcoming, purpose-led Board of Trustees

  • Play a critical role in the growth and long-term sustainability of a small, high-impact charity

  • Help shape national conversations around LGBTQI+ rights, faith and acceptance

About Naz and Matt Foundation
Naz and Matt Foundation was founded in 2014 after the tragic loss of Naz (Dr Nazim Mahmood), who took his own life two days after his religious family confronted him about his sexuality. Since then, we’ve supported thousands of individuals and families, delivered hundreds of public talks, spoken in Parliament, worked with central government, and with police, schools, and media, and campaigned tirelessly for acceptance, love and understanding.

We exist to empower LGBTQI+ individuals, their friends and families to work through challenges of acceptance – particularly where religion is involved.

Everyone is welcome at our table – regardless of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, race, faith or belief, sexual orientation or socioeconomic background.
