Former Warc Finance Director

I left the Netherlands to move to Sierra Leone with my partner in 2017, and was very lucky to quickly find a job as Finance Director at Warc. From the very beginning, I was given a lot of responsibility with respect to cash management, accounting and in developing/implementing good accounting practices. At Warc, I experienced working in a truly international team and in an environment where sustainable growth is essential. While I have now returned to the Netherlands, seeing things from the ‘client side’ at Warc was an invaluable experience that helps me add to the strengths of my accounting skills at PwC.

From my first day at Warc, I was immediately given the responsibility and flexibility I needed to contribute to the goal of ending hunger. I was encouraged to take risks and approach problems from new perspectives. I am now a Master of Science in Foreign Service (MSFS) candidate at Georgetown University. As I engage with new international problems as part of my professional degree, I consistently draw on my experiences at Warc. Both the skills I learned and mindset I cultivated at Warc will stay with me throughout my life and career.

Former Warc Consultant

I came to Stanford wanting to make a career change towards impact investing. My experience working with Warc not only gave me a very rich view on social enterprise dynamics in developing countries, but also gave me solid credentials for my future career. The Warc team was super open and immediately gave me meaningful responsibilities. Warc was a great way to learn more about social enterprises and to have work experience on the ground.
