+*Co-op Cloud* is a libre software infrastructure project built by and for democratic tech collectives and worker co-ops. The goal is to craft libre software tools from existing parts which simplify and standardise the set up and maintenance of digital infrastructure. Co-op Cloud is built to serve everyday people and organisations who align with our values: grassroots democracy, public ownership and social justice.

+## What will you do?
+
+Due to lack of capacity on the part of the current Federation membership, we are actively looking for someone to suport us primarily with *financial administration* . This is not a "pure" financial administration role, we also need support organising debate, adaptation and democratic decision making around the topic of money and how we deal with it together within the federation. The exact tasks of this role ("mandate") have been voted on by all federation members in [a large decision](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation/resolutions/passed/029/) which will be repeated here in full.
