Dear WCA community,

The WCA Financial Committee (WFC) is looking for new members, and we’d love to hear from you. You don’t need to be a finance professional - but any knowledge or background in accounting would be advantageous. If you’re curious, reliable, and want to help the WCA run better behind the scenes this might be for you.

What does the WCA Financial Committee actually do?

In simple terms, we help make sure the WCA’s money is handled responsibly and used to support cubing around the world. That includes things like:

• Tracking income and expenses and ensuring it is reconciled and categorized
• Supporting funding programs (travel, equipment, regional organization support)
• Helping plan and monitor the WCA’s budget
• Creating clear financial reports for the community and for regulatory filings
• Improving financial processes and governance as the WCA grows

You would not be expected to do all of this — committee members usually focus on a subset of tasks based on their interests, experience, and goals as a volunteer.

Who is this a good fit for?

• Volunteers who want to contribute beyond local competitions
• Students or early-career professionals looking for real non-profit experience
• Anyone interested in how an international non-profit actually operates

You’ll work alongside experienced committee members, the WCA COO, and the WCA Treasurer, and we’re happy to support newer volunteers as they learn.

You must be at least 18 years old and able to communicate clearly in written English. Although not required, any experience in financial operations, bookkeeping, grant program administration, or accounting policy development would be a great skill to bring to the team.

Time commitment
On average, the commitment is about 3-5 hours per week, though this can vary depending on the projects you’re involved in.

Most coordination happens asynchronously via email and chat, and we aim to stay reasonably responsive as a team.

How to apply
Please send a Word document or PDF that includes:

• A short personal introduction
• A summary of your involvement in the cubing community (if any)
• Your motivation for joining the Finance Committee
• An overview of any relevant skills or experience (professional or volunteer)

Email your application to ehollingdale@worldcubeassociation.org by 9 May 2026. You’ll receive a confirmation once we’ve received it, and applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

If you’re unsure whether you’re a “perfect fit” — apply anyway. We value different backgrounds, perspectives, and levels of experience.

If you’d like more background, please refer to WCA Motion 10.2024.6 - WCA Financial Committee and WCA Motion 11.2025.1 - Finances. The annual WCA Financial Reports, available on the WCA Documents page under "Finances", also provide useful background on the committee's operations.

If you have questions before applying, feel free to reach out. We look forward to hearing from you.
