1285 District, Club Treasurer - Tim Smith has just finished his first 6 months of a 3 year term as a member of the Rotary International Finance Committee.
He was appointed as part of a pilot scheme to encourage qualified and experience Rotarians who were not known to senior leaders to take part to bring a fresh perspective. Tim described himself as a young 50 year, Charted Accountant with a focus on European Operational Audits on his application. With over 1,000 application for 26 positions throughout Rotary International Standing Committees this is a major vote of confidence in him.
With a Budget of US$100m and over 800 staff Rotary International has plenty of issues to keep the Finance Committee occupied. The fact that the UK has its own Administration unit of RIBI is not held against him too much. However this does provide a good counter point when discussions about RI International offices are held.
