Belper United FC – Club Treasurer (Volunteer Role)
Why is this role available?
Belper United continues to grow both on and off the pitch, and that success has created new opportunities, and new demands, for the club. As we move forward, members of the existing Senior Leadership Team are transitioning into dedicated Commercial and Public Relations roles to help drive the club’s long‑term development, sponsorship, and community presence.
Because of this positive shift, we’re now looking for new volunteers to step into key operational roles. These positions aren’t replacing anyone – they’re part of strengthening the club’s structure so we can keep improving, stay organised, and support our players, coaches, and supporters in the best possible way.
This is a chance to join a club on the rise and play a meaningful part in its next chapter.
What is this role all about?
The Club Treasurer is the steady hand that helps Belper United stay financially healthy and organised. You don’t need to be an accountant or a finance expert – just someone who’s comfortable with basic numbers, enjoys keeping things tidy, and wants to support the club in a meaningful way.
This role is perfect for someone who likes structure, is reliable, and wants to make a real difference behind the scenes. You’ll be supported by the committee, and we’ll make sure you have everything you need to succeed.
How much time will it take?
