Role

Are you passionate about supporting families and children?

At Home-Start Edinburgh, we believe in the power of early intervention and the life-changing potential of strong, nurturing relationships. We're here for families with young children in Edinburgh facing challenging circumstances — whether it’s isolation, mental health struggles, or financial insecurity. 

Our skilled staff and volunteers work alongside these families, empowering them to thrive. 

Now, we’re looking for a Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees. As well as fulfilling the duties of a general Trustee, this is a great opportunity to provide your financial expertise and guidance to help us continue delivering this vital mission.  

You will play a key role in overseeing the charity’s finances, ensuring sound financial management and governance, and help shape our strategic direction. 

You’ll work closely with fellow trustees and staff to maintain financial health and stability, advise on budgeting and funding, and present financial reports to the Board.

This is a voluntary role requiring attendance at trustee meetings (around 5 per year) and occasional input between meetings.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has sound experience in finance, accounting, and business management
• Can interpret financial information and communicate it clearly
• Will share our vision and commitment to supporting families across the community.

Join us in making a lasting difference to local families.
