Interim CEO at Indigo Volunteers, working with businesses to meet their CSR goals and encouraging staff engagement.
After working in the humanitarian sector for the past 5 years, I can say that it is one of the most rewarding experiences, and one I'd recommend to everyone. Working in a space where you know you're doing good - however big or small that impact might be - feels like more than a job. Being a humanitarian will challenge you physically and mentally, but nothing creates more resilience than the passion and commitment of helping others. Especially when you are part of a team that's supporting you at every step and that operates with the same passion and purpose. Here are a few key benefits that I've experienced working in this remarkable sector: - Purpose-Driven Work: Knowing that you are directly contributing to a valuable cause is deeply fulfilling and has kept me motivated since day 1. - Global Perspective: The humanitarian sector opens your eyes to different challenges and cultures. As a result you build empathy, understanding and a global mindset. - Skill Development: The challenges we face in the sector are always changing and you might often get to experience things you never would expect. Working in this field has required me to learn how to problem solve, stay adaptable, and lead with compassion. - Personal Growth: Working in this sector changes your perspective on what truly matters in life, and has deepened my sense of purpose and belonging. If you are considering a career change, think about joining the humanitarian sector. It will be one of the most impactful journeys of your life. #HumanitarianWork #GlobalImpact #CareerGrowth #MakeaDifference
