Branch Treasurer Volunteer (South Lanarkshire)

We have 116 volunteer-led branches across the UK, covering almost three quarters of the country. We also have online branches for autistic people with a shared interest, identity or experience. Our hard-working volunteers run support, information and social activities for autistic adults, children and their families in their local area. They also organise and join in with fundraising and campaigning.

Our branches are financially independent and rely on local fundraising keep themselves running. This is why the Treasurer role is vital for all of our branches, branches can’t function without you.

The Treasurer role is fully supported by both the regional Senior Branch Engagement Officer and our Finance and Admin Officer. You will receive full guidance and training for monitoring the branch finances. Each month, you’ll be asked to submit a pre-formatted spreadsheet detailing the branch’s income and expenditure. You will also help the branch chair by signing off jointly on branch spending.
