We love making meaningful connections that have a real impact. Our latest pro bono recruitment initiative with Atwea College, a non-profit organisation championing lifelong learning, is a perfect example of how the right hire can strengthen an organisation’s ability to make a difference.
Atwea College provides transformative education and training programmes, helping individuals and communities thrive. Understanding the importance of compliance and risk management in sustaining this mission, they needed a strategic leader to oversee regulatory adherence, risk mitigation, and operational integrity.
That’s where we stepped in. Using our expertise in executive search and industry connections, we successfully placed Andrew Baxter, a seasoned compliance, governance, and risk expert with over two decades of experience, into the role of Governance, Compliance & Risk Manager at Atwea.
Julie Gearie, CEO of GWG Recruitment, shared:
“At GWG, we’re committed to supporting organisations that create positive change. Helping Atwea secure a Compliance & Risk professional aligns with our mission to contribute to organisations that make a real impact. We’re thrilled to have played a part in strengthening their ability to serve the community.”
Atwea College’s CEO Helga Smit also expressed her appreciation:
“The assistance from GWG Recruitment has been invaluable. Finding the right Governance, Compliance & Risk Manager is crucial for Atwea College’s sustainability and growth. It was a smooth and professional process with the right level of touchpoints and a great result. Andrew will help ensure our compliance with sector regulations and enable us to continue delivering impactful programs.”
This collaboration is a testament to the power of purpose-driven recruitment. By offering pro bono recruitment services, GWG continues to support organisations that are making a real difference.
