Why I work at NPC

Through my background in the charity sector, I have long been aware of NPC, its thought leadership and fantastic work to bring about positive change for charities and funders alike. Working at NPC provides a unique opportunity to take a helicopter view of the sector, working in partnership with our funders to support charities and those they help in a holistic and impactful way and helping to turn our shared visions into reality.
