TREASURER TRUSTEE OPPORTUNITY – MOOR TREES
Established in the early 2000s, Moor Trees strives to restore native broadleaf woodland on Dartmoor in response to the climate and nature crises. We create healthy woodland by providing the local community with unrivalled access to locally sourced and grown broadleaved trees, carefully identified and selected to provide a diverse range of species ideally suited to planting on Dartmoor. We gather seeds from ancient woodlands in the area and these are grown in our community tree nurseries, nurtured and tended by a growing team of engaged volunteers. We then work together to plant these saplings – over 9,000 planted last season – despite the wettest winter we can remember! At the heart of our mission lies a powerful purpose: improving biodiversity, mitigating combating climate change and connecting communities – the most urgent challenges of our time.
This exciting opportunity will contribute strategically to a charity making a difference to biodiversity and woodland cover on Dartmoor. We are looking for a Treasurer who will help us grow by maintaining an overview of the organisation’s financial affairs, ensuring its financial viability and that proper financial records and procedures are maintained. The Treasurer will span the breadth of assessing the financial implications of our strategic plans to practically supporting the Chief Executive with the preparation of accounts and financial reports to the Trustees. We are looking for someone who can share their financial expertise, who is passionate about our work and our vision and who will enjoy being part of a committed and motivated Board of Trustees.
