Brass Bands England (BBE) is seeking motivated and dynamic individuals who are passionate about brass banding's future. We are particularly interested in individuals with experience in finance, accounting or strategic financial oversight—especially those who can support effective financial governance and bring clarity to complex financial matters. As with all our trustees, we value your perspective and lived experience to help shape the future of this forward-thinking charity. Past experience or knowledge of the brass banding sector is not a requirement. About BBE Brass Bands England is a national registered charity and membership organisation representing over 600 brass bands. More than 30,000 people of all ages and backgrounds participate on at least a weekly basis in this friendly, healthy and artistic pastime. Our charity educates the public on the importance and value of brass bands, and promotes good practice in performance. We engage with a wide range of partners in strategic and operational ways to help share the fun, challenges and rewards of being involved with a brass band. We are a voice for all brass bands and their players and extol the life-enhancing virtues of this important art form. Purpose The Treasurer will lead the trustees in the oversight of the charity's strategic financial management. While all trustees are collectively responsible for the management of the charity's resources, the Treasurer will act as the lead trustee in articulating the financial governance of the organisation and will play an active role in ensuring that all trustees are fully able to understand the charity's financial arrangements and contribute to financial discussion and decisions. Commitment You will be expected to attend four online meetings a year in September, December, March and June. Meetings usually last around two hours. In preparation for the meeting, we would expect you to have read papers which will be sent out in advance.In addition to board meetings, the role of Treasurer will require a further commitment of approximately 2– 4 online zoom meetings per month, likely to last approximately an hour at a time. This time may be spent on activities such as reviewing financial reports, liaising with staff or fellow trustees, supporting the development of financial strategy, and ensuring the charity maintains strong financial controls and compliance. The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 28th July with shortlisted candidates invited to attend an online interview on Monday 18th August.
