what does the comm do? (Treasurer)

Treasurer! The person who holds the purse strings of GENUS. Yes, the person you go for to pay money and to get money. (Lol this description sounds exactly like an ATM)

However this is not all a treasurer does!

What does the Treasurer do?

• To constantly keep track of the accounts
• Budgetting
• Collect club fund from members
• Ticketing and front of house during annual concert
• Liaising with the tailor for uniform
• Get dinner for concerts
• Raise funds for GENUS (Sponsorship)
• In charge of Annual Dinner

It is the responsibility of the treasurer to oversee how the money is spent, to make sure that the group does not over-spend or under-spend. The main criteria is one should be accountable in dealing with the accounts and be meticulous with it. Having good records of where the money goes is really important! Without money, we would not be able to do things like buy new strings for our guitars and enjoy member welfare (e.g. teas and annual dinner!)

Qualities that a good Treasurer candidate should have:

As a treasurer, one should be trustworthy and reliable. Afterall you are handling all of our funds! I believe having the ability to effectively hound people for payment would be really helpful to the next treasurer too ;)
