Our Ethos

The values of The Life Project (Bath) are at the heart of who we are and what we do – they are guided by a Christian ethos. These values have strong roots in the Christian teaching and practice, whilst also being accessible and meaningful for all – regardless of background. We believe that every person is unique – fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:4) – and is a valuable gift to the world and our community.

About You

We are looking for a positive, dedicated and experienced individual to support the board as a Treasurer from April 2023, when the current Treasurers term of office comes to an end. It is not a requirement that the Treasurer is a trustee, though we find that this is beneficial.

We are particularly interested in hearing from people with:

• Previous experience of bookkeeping and financial management
• A willingness to be available to staff and trustees
• A willingness to ask difficult questions and act as a critial friend
• Good financial / numerical analysis skills
• A desire to help the charity achieve its strategic goals

Please note it is a requirement of our constitution that Trustees are committed Christian's and can sign up to our statement of faith. Candidates interested in becoming Treasurer who are unable to sign the statement of faith are welcome but would not be members of the board.
