As the Leadership Training Finance Administrator, you will be entrusted your role is to oversee how finances are spent and to make sure all Reliant policies are followed. As such, you will need to decide if your Program is going to use BILL Spend & Expense (credit card purchases) or event fund reimbursements (where each field staff worker fills out reimbursement forms and turns them in to Reliant directly and then waits for it to be deposited into their account at the standard reimbursement deposit time). We highly suggest BILL as there are many limitations to event fund reimbursements such as interns can not use the reimbursements, and you have to wait for many weeks to receive the reimbursement back.
As you prepare for this role, please read (and share) the following linked pages below:
