Contribute to the growth of the Old Rutlishians' Association (ORA) in London.
The Old Rutlishians' Association (ORA) is a sports and social club located in Merton Park, London. Established in the heart of the community, the club offers a wide range of activities and facilities for members of all ages and abilities. The club is proud to be associated with the Rutlish School and aims to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all.
The board of trustees plays a crucial role in ensuring the long-term success and sustainability of the ORA. Currently, the club is seeking to fill two trustee vacancies: one for the role of Treasurer and another for the role of Hospitality/Property Management. Both roles offer unique opportunities to contribute to the club's growth and development.
The Treasurer of the ORA is responsible for overseeing the club's accounts and finances. This includes managing all income and expenditure, planning the annual budget, and ensuring that funds are used appropriately. The Treasurer will also prepare end-of-year accounts, payroll, management accounts, and VAT returns. The ideal candidate for this role should have a financial background, knowledge of accounting, and be enthusiastic about supporting the ORA's long-term financial position.
The trustee vacancy for Hospitality/Property Management is an exciting opportunity for someone with a passion for creating a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere within the club's clubhouse and bar. The successful candidate will oversee the development of the club's space, planning improvements and ensuring that it remains an attractive destination for members and visiting clubs alike. This role requires strong organisational and management skills, as well as a keen eye for detail.
Both trustee roles require a commitment to attend regular trustee meetings and fulfil ongoing financial or managerial responsibilities. The ORA welcomes candidates who are reliable, honest, and dedicated to contributing to the well-managed and governed club.
To apply for either vacancy, interested individuals should submit a CV highlighting relevant experience and key achievements. Additionally, a covering letter should address the competencies outlined in the role description and person specification. Applications should be sent to lucytrevelyan@hotmail. Com, with a closing date of January 30th for the Treasurer role and no specified closing date for the Hospitality/Property Management role.
