Everton in the Community has appointed Lesley Beattie as its new Director of Development where her focus will be to support
the management and growth of the charity.
Lesley brings a wealth of commercial experience to
the position, including a role at Liverpool City Council where she created its
first Commercial Division. After generating more than £6m of income for the
Council, Lesley moved back to the private sector before creating her own consultancy
in 2018 to concentrate on helping both public and private sector businesses
with their commercial strategies.
Lesley joins Everton in the Community at an exciting
time and she will work closely with Chief Executive Officer Richard Kenyon and
her fellow Directors to shape and take a lead in delivering the commercial
element of a growth strategy for the charity through its existing fundraising
initiatives, corporate partnerships and lotteries products as well as the
development of new products and services.
Commenting on her appointment, Everton in the
Community’s new Director of Development Lesley Beattie said: “This fantastic
charity encompasses all of the values I hold dear and I am looking forward to
getting started and working with my team to influence and effect positive and
social outcomes across a range of diverse and worthwhile projects.
“I have experience in many of the areas that Everton
in the Community lead on and I believe that my passion for making a difference,
coupled with my commercial experience and networks will provide positive
results for the charity and also provide me with a personal sense of
achievement.”
