Mind in Enfield and Barnet (MiEB) is seeking a new Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees and provide strategic financial oversight as we continue to grow and innovate in mental health support.
About Us
MiEB is a dynamic local mental health charity, proudly affiliated with the national Mind federation but operating independently. Since our merger in 2021, we’ve expanded significantly – supporting over 5,000 people annually and growing our income to £2.19 million in 2023/24.
We are Led by Lived Experience, with over 75% of our staff having personal experience of mental health challenges. Our services span therapy, wellbeing, advocacy, and crisis support, and we are committed to equity, empowerment, and real change.

- A professional finance qualification or equivalent senior-level financial management experience
- A strong understanding of charity finance and governance
- Experience managing complex budgets and financial reporting
- The ability to communicate financial information clearly to non-financial audiences
- Experience of chairing meetings and working collaboratively with senior teams
