As our Director of Engagement & Advisory, Sally works alongside Fundholders, clients, and partners to build strong relationships and support their philanthropic journeys for greater impact.

I am passionate about…

Expanding access to opportunity so people can make meaningful choices about their lives. I’m particularly passionate about housing and employment as the foundations for stability, wellbeing, and belonging. I’m motivated and inspired by work that opens up pathways – whether that’s a second chance or a hundredth – and helps people move forward on their own terms.

My experience

I’ve spent my career in the for-purpose sector, working across engagement, partnerships and business development, often within social enterprises. I’ve held senior roles at organisations including The Big Issue, where I worked on partnerships and revenue initiatives to support vendors and grow impact, and Leadership Victoria, where I designed leadership programs to help organisations respond to complex workforce challenges. I’m also the Chair of the Centre for Social Impact Course Advisory Committee and a Board Member at StreetSmart Australia.
