“I am really pleased that Sian has stepped into the role of interim CEO. Sian has years of experience at The Wallich, knows the organisation and the people we support inside out, and I know holds a deep and genuine love for the work you all do. “
“Together with the rest of the Executive Team, I know that they will continue to provide the leadership we want to see over the coming months as we all review the next organisational strategy and work out what our priorities are for the next five years.
As many of you know, I have been a supporter of The Wallich since I started my career in housing 11 years ago. The one constant in the third sector is change – and I cannot think of a better and stronger group of people, led by Sian, to keep the organisation growing and developing over the coming months.
“The Board is comfortable with taking our time with the recruitment of a new, official CEO.”
There is important work going on in the meantime: the development of a new strategy; updates to the way we do housing management; new relationships with partner organisations and more.
It is an exciting time for the organisation, and with so much change we want to take our time to get recruitment right. In the meantime, I know that Sian and the rest of the leadership team will be doing an excellent job at guiding the organisation forward.”
