Treasurer/ Trustee

Working Arrangements: Offers hybrid working

The trustees and management of CMC Adventure are looking for an honorary treasurer to take over with effect from April 2025 (or as soon as possible afterwards). The post is a voluntary one, though CMC will reimburse necessary expenses.

CMC (the Christian Mountain Centre) was established in 1966, moving to its current location in 1998. We aim to encourage, build up and enrich the lives of our guests through challenging authentic outdoor adventurous challenge in a genuine caring Christian community.

CMC Adventure is a two-site outdoor education centre in North Wales, based at Pensarn Harbour, just south of Harlech, and Bryn y Moel, in the woods a quarter of a mile up the hill from Pensarn. We are embarking on an ambitious vision for the redevelopment of our harbour site facilities and are looking for skilled and experienced trustees to guide us through the many challenges ahead.

The Treasurer is an officer of the Trustee Board and not a paid member of staff. In common with all trustees and staff, it is a genuine occupational requirement that the treasurer be a practising Christian and agree with and sign the charity's statement of faith. An appropriate DBS check will be required.

The purpose of the role is to ensure that the charity's finances and supporting financial control systems are robust and comply with relevant regulations. The role works closely with the Finance Officer, the Chief Executive, and the Chair of the Board of Trustees.

Four in-person board meetings are held at CMC annually (one of them just prior to the annual general meeting in April/May, and the others in July, November, and March). Interim meetings are held via Zoom.
