With his own successful career as an Accountant, Graeme joined the Allambi Care Board in 2003, bringing his financial skills to his Director and Treasurer roles.
Since then, Allambi Care has continued to grow a well-rounded and committed Board, overseeing the Governance of the organisation. With combined life and business skills, the Board work with the management team to make unbiased decisions for business proficiency.
“We have exceptional senior leadership and there's a great comradery amongst them. We don't have competing interests. They work together as a team, a very cohesive team,” said Graeme.
Graeme’s sense of comradery with the Allambi Care team is one of his career highlights and he speaks fondly of the notion of the ‘Allambi Family’, “I would describe the Allambi family as a true family, outside of a biological family, a family that believes in, all children, no matter what the behaviour, that there is hope for them to have a better life.”
This belief in the Allambi Care purpose is what attracted Graeme to the Board more than 20 years ago.
Simon Walsh, Allambi Care CEO reflects on the impact that Grame has made in the organisation.
“Graeme has brought to our board an expertise around finances for the organisation, but more importantly a heart for the kids and families we serve in the community.
All our decisions are made with more than just a financial lens on them. Graeme is genuinely invested in the community, and we have been blessed to have him volunteer his time to us for the last 21 years.
When I first started as a young leader, Graeme’s support and advice was integral in my professional development, and has helped me to grow as a leader in the organisation.”
We sincerely thank you for your years of service Graeme.
