MISSION TO SEAFARERS SCOTLAND
MtSS is recruiting for a Volunteer Treasurer
The Mission to Seafarers Scotland is looking for a working from home volunteer Treasurer to assist with their accounts. The Treasurer would be expected each month to maintain records, pay invoices and then complete a simple spread sheet showing income and expenditure, provide details of VAT income and expenditure [although the VAT return will be completed by our Head Office in London], and bank cash and cheques.
At the year end, the spread sheet will be given to our accountants who will prepare the P+L account.
The turnover is in the region of £70K per year.
Idealy the Treasurer would start in January 2025 and be a Trustee of The Mission to Seafarers, attend occasional meetings at our Seafarer Centre at Grangemouth and liaise with the other Trustees to advise them on financial matters.
We are looking for someone who has perhaps half a day per week to spend with us.
