Role Description
This role has helped me develop skills in budgeting, fundraising, organization, managing a box office, as well as organizing THE main QMTC event of the year, Edinburgh Fringe. I've had a wonderful year working with everybody in this company and helping to enable all the wonderful theatre and opportunities we create for our members. I recommend this role for anybody who wants to learn about the financial as well as administrative practicalities of both running a theatre company, but also in much broader terms, such as running a business, event, fundraiser (I could go on for a while). Even if you aren't an expert in finance, if you're willing to learn the practical applications of this role to the real world are extensive and help build a wide range of key skills. It's a lovely time being part of this company and working in a team with the committee. The Treasurer role is undeniably difficult and needs a lot of time, but it's vitally important to the company and is - I can say from personal experience - incredibly rewarding.
Responsibilities:
• Keeping a record of all income and expenditure, such as tickets and expenses.
• Managing QMTC's financial model for the current year, and for the future, as necessary. This includes working to raise the E27000+ needed to run the society each year.
• Being the key contact for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and maintaining our strong relationship with the venue and accommodation teams.
• Filling out paperwork when liaising with and between the SU, Fringe and licensing companies, like financial forms, invoices, funding, sponsorships and events.
• The point of contact for legal matters, such as managing applications and payment of performance licensing, materials, deposits and royalties for licensed shows.
• Setting show budgets and ticket prices, checking memberships, and running the box office.
• Allocating budgets to socials and events throughout the year arranged by the rest of committee.
• Being an active presence within the QMTC community, answering questions from members and a friendly face!
Key Skills:
• proficiency with spreadsheets
• Financial planning, and problem solving.
• Time management and working to deadlines
