Finance Trustee
The current Trustee (Finance) is retiring from the SRA’s board of Trustees and therefore, this role has become vacant in our Skill’s Matrix.
The specific finance duties that would be part of the position include:
- Assisting with the preparation of the annual accounts ahead of sharing to the accountants for submission
- Working through annual budgets and auditing accounts as necessary
- Supporting the Executive team with any finance queries as needed
If you would like an informal conversation with the out-going Finance Trustee this can be arranged via Delly Innes (SRA- Chair).
The Scottish Racing Academy (SRA) has been developed to address the gap in horseracing education and training provision available in Scotland.
It has been estimated that there are more than 50 different career paths in the horse racing industry and we want to help attract individuals from all walks of life to fulfil those roles.
The Scottish Racing Academy has partnered with leading educational centres to help people learn the skills and knowledge to pursue a career in horse racing.
