“Southwark Charities is in the middle of a once-in-a-century project to increase all aspects of our charitable activity. After a rigorous selection process, Eleanor was commissioned to conduct a thorough review of our policies and governance following a major Board reorganisation.

She brings a wealth of charity experience as both a senior manager and a trustee and is able to synthesize these two vital elements of the governance jigsaw together in a pragmatic and organic way. Eleanor will continue to provide high-level support to the Board and senior management as we continue to pursue our strategic goals.”

Chris Wilson, CEO, Southwark Charities

“I’ve known Eleanor since 2018 and have a huge amount of respect for her professionalism, thoughtfulness and leadership.

She is always values-driven and fair in her approach when dealing with challenging situations.

She has a holistic vision for organisations and her broad range of skills and experience give her a unique position to support organisations to advance and grow.”

Andrea Meister, COO, Family Grant-Making Foundation

"Our charity, a long-established foundation which is transforming from a small organisation to a significantly larger one, engaged Eleanor Munif to provide advice on future staffing structures. 

Her approach was efficient and highly professional. She conducted detailed research which was both rigorous and emotionally intelligent, and provided comprehensive advice and options for future staffing which were highly practical, evidence-based and tactfully presented without shying away from difficult issues."

Chair of the Board, London Community-Based Charity

“Eleanor came on board to provide executive support to me at a challenging time for our organisation. Her skills, background and experience in senior level operations were very helpful to me as I navigated through the challenges.

She was a great sounding board for me – open and understanding – and a valuable source of reliable and expert advice.”
