The formal textbook answer on the role is set out below. In the majority of cases the role is carried out by a volunteer although some parishes are beginning to consider employing someone to carry out the duties.  \nIt is perfectly acceptable to have a paid treasurer although they cannot be a member of the PCC (charity trustees are not usually allowed to be paid) . However, if this is the case it would be sensible to have the employed treasurer as a nonvoting attendee; or to have a PCC member who is the formal ‘treasurer’ and who supervises the work of a paid bookkeeper or parish accountant. Further details are shown in the appendix.  \nRole of the Treasurer  \nThe basic role of the treasurer is to:  \n• Ensure received income is recorded and banked  \n• Monitor all items of income and expenditure  \n• Pay and record all items of expenditure  \n• Keep proper books and records  \n• Prepare the annual accounts each year  \n• Assist the PCC in setting an annual budget  \n• Advise the PCC of the financial position against budget  \n• Provide general financial information to the PCC  \nThe treasurer is an officer of the PCC, an official position serving the church by providing financial leadership at a strategic level. He/she is appointed by the PCC,(hopefully!) with the support of the Vicar and Church Wardens. The treasurer usually serves on the Standing Committee, Finance Committee and as an ex-officio member of any committee with a high impact on finance. [See Church Representation Rules 2004] .  \nThe treasurer must act as the first and primary tier of financial checks and balances; and is responsible for the proper disbursement of church funds – both restricted and unrestricted within policies established by the Charities Commission, the Church of England and the PCC.  \nControls and Procedures  \nThe role involves ensuring that there are essential controls and procedures in place for the proper management of charitable funds. This includes keeping detailed and accurate accounting records and reports of stewardship income, offerings, special  \nappeals and any trading and restricted income; as well as detailed, receipted and categorised support records of expenditures.  \nIn order to avoid conflicts of interest and maintain proper controls the various duties of Treasurer, Cashier and Stewardship Recorder should be separated where possible. In a larger church a separate Accountant may be appointed under the management of the Treasurer. Larger churches are also required to maintain a Risk Register; various activities may carry a financial risk.  \nBasic Tasks  \nThe treasurer has a number of key jobs identified below. The PCC needs to remember that it is the PCC in charge of the church’s money, not the treasurer! This is important for treasurers to remember as some think it is they that say how PCC money should be spent! Some of these tasks may not be relevant to all parishes:  \n• Carry out the financial policy of the PCC  \n• Prepare a budget  \n• Record all cash transactions  \n• Keep a watch on the finances of the church  \n• Keep the PCC aware of it’s duties  \n• Encourage the wider mission of the church  \n• Set up a system of bookkeeping  \n• Prepare the annual accounts for the APCM  \n• Deal with PAYE and NIC  \n• Free the parish priest from worries over church finances  \nAn appendix is attached for those who consider a formal job description is important to have, especially for those who are being taken on as paid employees.  \nAPPENDIX  \nAppointing a Paid Treasurer or Parish Bookkeeper/Accountant  \nIf you are considering appointing someone to a paid position then the role might like to be formalised a bit further and the following job description/draft contract could be used as a guide.
