Vacancy for Independent Examiner of Croquet England

[<<] [>>] by Robert Fulford
4th June (CqE Official News)

We are looking for a qualified person to become the first independent examiner of Croquet England CIO.

Croquet England was formed in March 2023. Most operations in 2023 were still carried out by the Croquet Association and there were very few transactions for Croquet England in that year. We anticipate the work required for the independent examination for the period ending 31 December 2023 will take around one week to be completed by the end of August 2024. We would still be interested to hear from candidates for whom this is too short notice, as strictly an independent examination for 2023 is not required.

From 1 January 2024 operations were taken over by Croquet England. We have a gross annual turnover of close to £500,000. The 2024 independent examination is likely to take 3 weeks with the work undertaken between January and June 2025, then following this pattern for future years.

The independent examiner needs to be a member of a body listed in the 2011 Charities Act and permitted to act in that role by the body. This list includes all the main accountancy bodies.

For further information, or to apply for the role, please contact Robert Fulford (Treasurer) or Samir Patel (Chair).
