Andrew's work involved realigning the mission and values of the organisation. Andrew also acted as Executive Lead during a leadership transition.
Executive Director | The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ
A For-Purpose organisation largely funded by the New Zealand and Australian governments, Andrew was employed to lead the delivery of the initial three-year NZ$17.3M contract to take the Pacific Regional Blindness Prevention Programme to scale. The Foundation works in the Pacific region where it provides post-graduate training for doctors and nurses.
Andrew provided strong leadership in strategy development and planning, innovative thinking and problem-solving, finding pragmatic solutions to complex challenges. Maintaining strategic partnerships with governments, international agencies and Universities were critical for success.
High quality programme impact monitoring and reporting alongside accurate financial performance reporting to the Board, external agencies and sponsors resulted in the programme continuing to enjoy sustained and generous donor support over a number of years. This has enabled The Foundation to undertake several ambitious infrastructure developments across the region under Andrew's leadership. These include the Pacific Eye Institute and mobile eye clinic in Fiji; the National Eye Centre in Timor-Leste; the eye clinics at Kimbe General Hospital and Modilon Hospital, Papua New Guinea; the world-class Regional Eye Centre in Honiara, Solomon Islands and the National Eye Centre in Port Vila, Vanuatu.
