Edwin has spent over 20 years working with both national and international NGOs: supporting causes such as health, science, and the environment. My experience ranges from working with small teams of just a few people to large global organisations with hundreds of staff. I am a mission-driven leader who focuses on helping teams stay effective and healthy while navigating complex changes. Edwin strongly believes in a people-centred approach that values kindness, humility, and the power of listening.
- Guiding Big Changes (Organisational Transformation): Supporting leaders in redesigning their teams so they can work better together – managing different change processes, ranging from small groups to departments with more than 100 staff.
- Delivering Large, Complex Projects: Leading short and long-term projects that involve many different teams, countries, and moving parts.
- Development People and Culture: Strengthened People and Culture departments and led strategic and operational HR Teams. Ranging from the employee experience, hiring and managing global teams, to ensuring the right HR policy frameworks for organisations.
- Advising Leaders and Improving Governance: A trusted “thought partner” to CEOs and Boards, helping them stay organised and make clear decisions in complicated international networks. Often acting as a chief of staff.
- Learning from Experience (Evaluation and Investigation): Provides an independent and fair pair of eyes to look at sensitive issues or see why a project didn’t go as planned reviewing and evaluating projects and strategies.
- Interim Leadership and Management Support: Able to step in to keep teams steady and focused when there are temporary leadership or management gaps.
