Are you a lover of multicultural events, music, and dance, and a supporter of creative people and youth?
Waikato Rocks Trust is a charitable organisation that promotes the creative work of our people, especially the music and dance of Waikato youth. Our journey began in 2010 at a rural radio station in Raglan and later expanded to Free FM 89.0 and Raglan Community Radio. Since then, we have organised several events, including producing 32 weekly New Zealand music episodes for SKY Television at no cost.

Some of the community events and activities we run:

  • Christmas at the Lake
  • Huntly Art in the Park
  • Tunes of Waikato (Waikato Youth Music)

We are seeking a Treasurer to join our team of five Trustees and a Manager. We are looking for someone with a good heart, a desire to support community organisations, and a willingness to give back to the community.
The Treasurer will support us with tax returns, financial statements, and making payments in a timely manner. Previous experience would be an advantage, but it is not essential.
