CCSD Seeks One Community Volunteer to Serve on the District’s Audit & Finance Committee

The Charleston County School District (CCSD) Board of Trustees is seeking community or industry leaders with training and education experience in Business, Finance, Accounting, or Information Technology to serve on the CCSD Audit & Finance Committee for the two-year term, with the possibility of annual renewals after that time.  

The Audit & Finance Committee’s purpose is to assist the Board of Education in fulfilling its financial and auditing oversight responsibilities.

Qualifications:

  • Has experience with audit committees and possesses a background in financial analysis, internal controls, accounting, budgeting and audits.
  • Must have medium-large corporation work experience in Finance, Financial Auditing, Banking, Economic Development, Business Management, or Information Technology.  
  • Must be willing to commit to a minimum of one (2-4 hour) meeting monthly.  Additional meetings may be called as the Committee's business requirements dictate.  Additional meetings are not anticipated to exceed one meeting per month.

The Committee serves solely in an advisory capacity, making recommendations to the Board on financial and audit-related matters.  Committee responsibilities include reviewing the District’s interim financial reports, recommending policies that maintain and improve the financial health and integrity of the District, and overseeing the internal and external audit functions.

Interested community members are asked to submit a resume and letter of interest outlining qualifications by September 4, 2026 to stephanie_sharib@charlestoncountyschools.gov or Stephanie Sharib, Financial Services, 75 Calhoun Street, Charleston, SC 29401.

The present Audit and Finance Committee will review applications and make recommendations to the CCSD Board of Trustees who will approve the new committee members.
