Apply for the Board: Treasurer

The TEIMUN Board of Directors is a part-time Board, meaning that you are expected to spend about 8-12 hours per week on work related to your position. That way, you can easily combine a Board year with full time study and other extracurricular activities.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the 2024/2025 TEIMUN Board of Directors (you may apply for several positions), please send the following documents* to info@teimun.org, with the subject line ‘Board Application [NAME]’ before 21 April 2024, 23:59:

– A CV
– A one-page motivation letter outlining your motivation to apply for the TEIMUN Board in general and your position(s) of choice in particular

* We may ask you to supply additional documents after receiving your application.

– You should be present in Groningen during the academic year

What Are the Treasurer’s Main Tasks?

– Keeping an overview of the financial situation of the Foundation, together with the Audit Committee
– Processing all payments, and doing bookkeeping
– Creating budgets for the conferences, the TEIMUN Society, and for the Foundation itself
– Use these budgets to subsequently formulate a financial year plan and executing it
– Making sure that the budgets are adhered to

What Qualities Should a Treasurer Possess?

– Being organised and systematic
– Not being afraid to remind others where necessary and say no

What Does a Treasurer Get Out of the Job?

Being a Treasurer means that you have a somewhat different role to the other Board members, as your work is spread out over the year instead of around the conferences. Moreover, you gain a background in bookkeeping, budgeting, and writing a financial report. As the year progresses, you become more confident in your abilities. Finally, you get an incredible experience from organising these conferences, as you get to meet a lot of new people.

We look forward to receiving your application. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us via info@teimun.org
