ABOUT THE COMPANY The Australian Men’s Health Forum (AMHF) is the national peak body for the health and wellbeing of boys and men. We bring together around 65 member organisations and 60 individual members, from national services to small volunteer-run groups, and a wider network of about 25,000 people who care about men’s health.

AMHF is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). We work with members and government on prevention, early intervention and support in the places men actually go. AMHF is entering a period of renewal under a new CEO and a 2026–27 strategy focused on national advocacy, member growth and a more sustainable income base.

We’re also strengthening our finance and governance practices, and the Treasurer will play a central part in that work.

ROLE PURPOSE The Treasurer leads the Board’s oversight of AMHF’s finances. You’ll work closely with the CEO and our external finance provider, chair the Finance and Risk Committee, and help the Board make sound financial decisions as AMHF grows and diversifies its income. Like all directors, the Treasurer shares collective responsibility for AMHF’s governance under the ACNC Governance Standards and the Corporations Act 2001.
