Overview:

The RoSE Network has so far been entirely unfunded. We'd like to change this, so that we're able to provide assistance where required for accessibility and inclusion (e.g., internet access in remote areas), to develop our infrastructure (e.g., our website and newsletter), and to award prizes and funding for statistics education research and scholarship. The Finance Co-Directors will work to identify, set-up, and manage sources of funding (e.g., a pay-as-you-feel model for our conference, a Patreon-style subscription, merchandise, grants) and look after our accounts (e.g., via a third party management company). 

Key Responsibilities:

• Represents financial matters, including accounting, fundraising, and financial strategy on the Core Committee, acting as liaison between the Network’s members, the Fundraising Team, and the Core Committee

• Key point of contact for financial matters, including external and internal queries

• Oversees the RoSE Fundraising Team, which will be tasked with identifying and applying for (with support from the wider committee) sources of funding

• Other ad-hoc tasks relating financial strategy and management for the RoSE Network

Person Specification:

We encourage applications from statistics education researchers (and practitioners with an interest in research/scholarship) from all over the world, at any career stage (from undergraduate to Professor), and of any demographic. 

We do not require experience, just potential and enthusiasm!

For this specific role, we'd especially like to hear from people with:

• A creative approach to fundraising

• Strong organisation / record-keeping skills

• Attention to detail

• As this is a Core Committee role, team and/or project management experience would be beneficial, but not essential

Time Commitment:

We recognise that RoSE committee members are volunteers and that your day jobs are notoriously hectic. As such, we operate a "many hands make light work" model to help share the load and ensure continuity. In particular, we are recruiting for one other Co-Director for Finance and, once the two Co-Directors are in place, we will begin recruiting a team of fundraisers to support you. 

Between the Finance Co-Directors, you will be expected to:

• Attend 1 x 2-hour Core Committee meeting every two months

• Attend 1 x 2-hour General Committee meeting every three months

• Spend an average of 30 minutes per week on proactive fundraising and/or related project work (project work can be concentrated in your least busy periods)

Role Duration:

Ongoing, with four week's notice requested.
