Associate Treasurer of the American
Mathematical Society
Help Guide AMS Fiscal
Policy
POSITION
The
Associate Treasurer helps administer and supervise AMS fiscal policies in
the interest of the mathematical community.
You
know finance and you know the AMS. Now you have the chance to play a leading
role in managing AMS policies, expenditures, investments, and budgets, while
following trends in finance. The American Mathematical Society seeks
applications and nominations of candidates for the post of Associate Treasurer.
This individual is an officer of the Society appointed by the Council to a
two-year term beginning February 1, 2022. All necessary expenses incurred by
the Associate Treasurer in performance of duties for the Society are
reimbursed, including travel and communications.
QUALIFICATIONS
We
welcome applications from PhD mathematicians who have substantial knowledge of
Society activities. Although the Associate Treasurer is appointed for a term of
two years, candidates willing to make a longer commitment will be preferred, as
it is expected that the Associate Treasurer will be reappointed for subsequent
terms pending successful performance reviews. The AMS strives to serve
mathematicians of all disciplines in an inclusive, equitable, and welcoming
fashion. Candidates that share in this approach are strongly encouraged to
apply.
DUTIES
The
Associate Treasurer has many duties parallel to those of the Treasurer:
- Administering or supervising
administration of fiscal policies in the interest of the mathematical
community, as determined by the Trustees.
- Monitoring funds, investments,
budgets, and trends of finance over periods of years, and reviewing salary
policy for AMS employees and its applications to individuals.
- Serving ex officio as a member
of the Board of Trustees, Council, and other committees, as well as

- In addition, the Associate
Treasurer serves as Secretary of the Mathematical Reviews Corporation, as
