Someone else has asked a similar question on Twitter.... and I find it an odd one. Just because the gentleman is MD of a large business, doesn't mean he's a multi-millionaire, notwithstanding he is likely to be well remunerated compared to the average person. I read his recruitment to the trust as someone who can provide expert corporate governance advice to the chair, whom represents our interest on the board of directors of the limited company with which we care for. Should the owner of said limited company wish to run it with an effective board in the first place.

whittles left foot Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Not trying to be pedantic and certainly not trying to pick holes in the Trust. I am sure he brings talent and experience.. Mr Flynn appears to be a managing director AT JP Morgan not OF JP Morgan-there is a massive difference in responsibility and salary (I would imagine).

What the Trust have said is correct. Companies like JP Morgan don't have an MD, they have Managing Directors and a Chief Executive who is like the latter of your post.

It's very good of Mr. Flynn to give his time up to help the Trust. His knowledge and experience will be invaluable if the unthinkable happens and AL walks away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A corporate lawyer/solicitor and an accountant would be ideal Do you need to be a fully qualified accountant or would part qualified be useful? If part qualified is of any use I may be able to help out within the next 6 months or so. Edited January 16, 2019 by RobOAFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can pm me your contact details Rob, I will pass it over to the key people in the Trust who can explain what exactly we are looking for and what experience/any quals needed. Our Trust Treasurer has recently resigned but has agreed to continue with our finances until they need to be submitted to the accountant/signed off and submitted to companies house. This will be end of January. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
