Financial probity is key to successful business. Those who manage National Governing Bodies of Sport, at whatever level, are responsible and accountable to their members, sponsors, partners and donors and many NGBs are also responsible for the management and distribution of government funding and grant aid. This section, although it stands alone within the website, is integral to corporate governance best practice and any documentation should be linked to reflect this. Although there is a good deal of information available to assist you in the development of your policies and procedures, organisations are still expected to work alongside and be guided by their financial professionals (internal and external accountants and auditors) to ensure that best practice is followed at all times. You may wish to link here to the Recruitment and Retention section of the site where you will find sample job descriptions for a number of key finance posts.
