Our current Treasurer says:
‘I’ve really enjoyed my decade of as Treasurer of Citizens Advice North Dorset and, post-merger, as Treasurer of CACD. Getting to know our volunteers and the fantastic work they do has been inspirational. The Treasurer role is supported by a highly competent Finance Manager so it is not ‘hands on’ and you will work equally closely with our excellent Chief Officer. If you are looking for a worthwhile voluntary role with a well-run and sustainable local charity, this is the job for you!’
