Case Study: Veterans Foundation strengthens leadership and board capability with Berwick Partners

Veterans Foundation strengthens leadership and supports £50m+ impact with Berwick Partners

The Veterans Foundation, a leading UK grant-making charity, faced the challenge of a critical leadership transition as its founding Chief Executive stepped down. They engaged the executive search services of Berwick Partners to find a new leader capable of elevating the Foundation's profile, diversifying its fundraising streams, and increasing its policy influence.

Berwick Partners successfully identified and placed a new Chief Executive, Jane Gurney, who brought a dynamic leadership style and a proven track record in charity sector growth. Furthermore, Berwick Partners conducted a rigorous search to appoint five new trustees with diverse backgrounds, revitalizing the board. As a result, the Veterans Foundation is now stronger and better equipped for its next phase of growth, positioned to deliver even greater impact for veterans across the UK. The client's testimonial confirms that the work of Berwick Partners was exceptional.
