Job Title: Treasurer
Role Overview
To provide strategic oversight of Aprender’s financial health, sustainability, and integrity. The Treasurer ensures that financial planning, controls, and reporting support the organisation’s mission while maintaining strong accountability to funders, regulators, and beneficiaries.
What Difference Will You Make?
Aprender is an ambitious charity operating with a lean structure and increasing complexity as it scales. In this context, the Treasurer plays a critical governance role in helping the Board understand financial risks and opportunities, ensuring robust stewardship of resources, and supporting long-term financial resilience.
Working closely with the Chair, CEO, and fellow trustees, the Treasurer ensures that Aprender’s finances enable — rather than constrain — sustainable growth and impact.
