We are actively recruiting for a payroll / bookkeeper job opportunity with an established accountancy firm based in Spalding.

The Vagina Museum is the world's first bricks and mortar museum dedicated to vaginas, vulvas & the gynaecological anatomy. We operate a free-entry museum open to the public. Alongside our permanent exhibition 'From A to V', which is dedicated to anatomy, health, vulva diversity and activism, we operate a community gallery, gift shop and host regular events. We give confidence to people to talk about issues surrounding gynaecological anatomy, erase the stigma around the body and gynaecological anatomy, act as a forum for feminism, women's rights, the LGBT+ and intersex community, challenge heteronormative and cisnormative behaviour, and promote intersectional, feminist and trans-inclusive values. Becoming a Treasurer A treasurer is a member of the board of trustees who helps guide and support the organisation to make sure it is well run and financially healthy. They oversee financial reporting, help the board understand the organisation's finances, and carry out regular checks on budgets, cash flow, and overall financial wellbeing. The treasurer plays a key role in ensuring the finances are managed responsibly and legally, while supporting and constructively challenging the leadership team to make sure the organisation can thrive now and in the future. They will work closely with the Director, who looks after annual planning, financial management and daily allocation of funds and the bookkeeper, who looks after reconciliations, payroll and VAT returns. We give all new recruits a three-month period as "board observers" so they can see how we work as a board, join in with activities and get a feel of what it means to be a trustee, prior to committing to becoming an official trustee. The Treasurer, like all Trustees, is asked to commit to a minimum two-year term and to contribute actively to the Board by helping set strategic direction, oversee policy, fundraising, performance, legal compliance, and the Museum's financial health and effective administration. The role typically requires around 5 to 8 hours per month, with most responsibilities carried out remotely. Occasional in-person meetings in London are required, and trustees are encouraged to visit the Museum and engage with staff and volunteers. Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be reimbursed. There is no need to have trustee experience to apply, although previous board experience or experience of being a treasurer would be useful. An interest in the promotion of intersectional feminism is necessary. The Vagina Museum holds and promotes the values of equality, diversity and inclusivity and we are seeking trustees who would be ambassadors to these values. We particularly welcome applications from Black and Asian people, and people who are trans or identify as non-binary as they are underrepresented on the current board. Meetings are flexible and normally online via Zoom. They typically fall on weekday evenings, but setting the meeting schedule is done through board consensus.
