The Treasurer’s key duties are to manage and reconcile Group finances with Xero and Westpac banking, to contribute to monthly Group Committee meetings, to prepare accounts for annual audits and to prepare an annual budget together with the Committee.

Ideally you will have some experience of book keeping or accounting, and are familiar with Xero, but this is not essential for someone with enthusiasm and a positive attitude.

No previous experience of Scouting is needed. Membership of Scouts QLD and training are expected and costs are covered within the role. A Blue Card is required, restricted persons are not eligible for any positions within Scouting.

Scouting is run on a fully-inclusive Youth-led, Adult-supporting principle. The Treasurer is a key role in supporting the learning experiences and ambitions of all Group members.

We have a great mix of boys and girls in our Group, and a range of interests and abilities. Unlike other organisations, Scouting encourages ALL members to explore new experiences and try out leadership roles, to direct their own path through the skills and learnings within the program and to challenge their own personal boundaries in a safe environment.

There are also fantastic opportunities for adults to learn new skills in adventurous activities and to benefit from personal development training and growth.
