Thames Ditton Homes Ltd is a not for profit organisation providing sheltered housing to the elderly in need.

It provides 15 sheltered housing units and employs one full time resident manager.

The organisation is overseen by a friendly Management Committee of volunteers.

We are looking for a new treasurer to replace our current treasurer who is looking to stand down.

The Management Committee meets four times a year in Thames Ditton with other ad hoc meetings as necessary.

The Treasurer maintains an overview of the organisation’s financial affairs, ensuring its viability and ensuring that proper financial records and procedures are maintained.

Key task are:

• Prepare and maintain the accounts (excluding invoice payment) liaise with HMRC

• Prepare and implement annual rent review

• Liaise with payroll and pension providers and manage salary and bonus review

• Deal with annual returns and subscriptions

• Manage banking

• Attend meetings & contribute to the wider running of TDHL its policies and procedures

Currently TDHL accounts are done in house on a self-balancing excel spreadsheet.

There is the opportunity to upgrade this to an accounting software system.

There is also the opportunity to implement online banking.

Please note: The current treasurer is happy to stay on and support anyone taking on the role if necessary.

What skills do I need?

We are looking for someone with an accounting (or finance) background to take on this role.

Whilst the accounts are currently managed with an Excel spreadsheet (therefore excel skills are essential), we are also open to advise as to the best way of managing the finance processes in the future.

Familiarity with general business packages such as Microsoft word would be necessary and familiarity with central data storage useful.

As well as basic finance skills we are looking for someone who would like to contribute to the overall running of the organisation.

To anyone looking to develop business skills this role provides an opportunity to develop 'board level experience.
