Volunteer Opportunity: Chapter Advisory Board Financial Advisers Needed

Phi Delta Theta is seeking dedicated financial advisers to support our chapters. As a chapter advisory board financial adviser, you’ll play a crucial role in shaping the financial health of our chapters and ensuring their long-term success. While being local to a chapter can be beneficial, it is not a requirement.

Why Become a Phi Delta Theta Financial Adviser?

Meaningful Impact: Your guidance ensures that chapters adhere to sound financial practices, paving the way for long-term success and sustainability. Your expertise not only helps in managing current financial activities but also prepares chapter members with essential financial skills they will carry into their professional and personal lives.

Networking Opportunities: Connect with other advisers, alumni, and university staff, expanding your professional network while contributing to a greater cause.

Responsibilities

As a financial adviser, you’ll collaborate with the chapter treasurer and finance committee to:

Set Budgets: Work with treasurers to create semester budgets, ensuring responsible financial practices.

Review greekbill Offerings: Assist in billing, collecting dues, and filing tax forms.

Promote Financial Accountability: Share account receivables and encourage responsible financial behavior.

Qualifications

Financial Knowledge: A background in finance, accounting, or related fields is beneficial.

Strong Communication Skills: Collaborate effectively with chapter leaders, alumni, and university staff.

Passion for Phi Delta Theta: A commitment to our values and mission.

About the Chapter Advisory Board

Phi Delta Theta is always looking for men and women who have the desire and willingness to share their expertise and background with the undergraduate brothers. The chapter advisory board’s responsibilities are spread out throughout a committee structure. The CAB commonly includes a chapter advisory board chairman, and advisers that assist with such operations as finances, recruitment, academics, alumni relations, risk management, Phikeia education, and campus relations. The CAB meets independently, occasionally attends chapter meetings, and works with chapter officers that match their responsibilities. Chapter advisory board members are also asked to participate in an online certification process prior to officially assuming their post. 

The chapter advisory board is usually made up of alumni from that specific chapter and other Phi Delts who live in the surrounding community. However, an increasing number of chapter advisory boards have enhanced their board membership by involving parents and members of the university and surrounding community. These individuals bring a fresh and different perspective to the Fraternity, which can positively impact the undergraduate brothers.
