Expectations
The board of Wedu Thailand Foundation plays a key role in ensuring Wedu makes strides towards our vision of a world where half of all leaders are women. Our board members represent a range of skills, expertise, and perspectives. Key functions of the Treasurer include:

● Make Wedu one of the top five causes they promote and support
● Participate in virtual Thai board meetings at least two times a year and at least two times a year in the global board meetings
Requirements
We are looking for board members who can help us be thoughtful about how to best leverage our strengths. We welcome people who bring an evident passion for Wedu’s vision and mission and can think and work strategically. We seek board members who can provide fiduciary oversight for the Foundation. The role is unpaid, with reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed. The initial term is three years and is extendable.
Strong candidates will be Thai nationals who have a demonstrated commitment to gender equity and women’s leadership. They will ideally have previous governance and/or executive experience, and a regional perspective would be a significant advantage. We will prioritise Treasurer candidates with extensive experience with financial management and accounting, ideally with a financial qualification. The Treasurer will guide and advise Wedu on financial affairs, bring a finance perspective into board discussions, and provide robust financial oversight.
