How Amanda is building a better working world
“I am fortunate enough to be able to work with EY Foundation as a co-sponsor of a Young Women’s Network which brings together 14- to 18-year old girls from challenged demographics. With the girls very much in the driving seat, we are shaping and helping to implement a program which focuses on developing their confidence, skills and knowledge in preparation for the world of work.
I am also very proud and privileged to be a member of 'Pilot Light,' an organization which matches executive talent with CEOs of charities. We work alongside the CEO, typically at a tipping point in the growth and development of the charity, to guide, advise and help them to achieve the success that they deserve.”
