Eleanor Wade
Finance & Commercial Director
After graduating with a degree in Psychology and Philosophy from Oxford University, Eleanor pursued a career in finance, training in audit at BDO and qualifying as a Chartered Accountant (ICAEW). Over the 12 years of her career so far Eleanor has moved between finance functions from audit to management accounting, to her current role as Finance and Commercial Director for The Forward Trust. The sectors Eleanor has worked in have been varied but she was drawn to work in the charity sector by a desire to give back, and the influence of both her interest in Psychology and strong medical family background.
