Introducing Wayne Green: National Engagement Manager (VIC & TAS)

Philanthropy Australia is delighted to introduce Wayne Green to our members, partners and friends. He has recently joined the team as the National Engagement Manager (VIC & TAS) on a 12-month contract to cover parental leave for Mary Chackola.

Wayne brings extensive experience in the philanthropic sector from the USA, UK and Australia. Wayne’s experience includes work in the not-for-profit sector, as well as supporting philanthropic initiatives, donor engagement and building philanthropy tools and resources to advance and grow giving across communities.

As previous Executive Director of Honeycomb, a New York based philanthropy organisation, Wayne spearheaded the international development and expansion of youth-focused and next-generation philanthropy initiatives, as well as collective giving programs within the Jewish and secular communities.

His leadership has been pivotal in shaping social impact and engagement efforts across North America and Australia, utilising evidence-based and data-driven practices to enhance effectiveness and foster collaboration.

“I am delighted to join the team at Philanthropy Australia as the new National Engagement Manger for Victoria and Tasmania.

“My experience overseas has shown me the incredible power of communities coming together to give, and I am excited to do this back home. I look forward to working with incredible partners in the field to foster deeper connections – and empowering donors and changemakers to have lasting impact for a kinder, more just and equitable world,” said Wayne.

Wayne will continue to work alongside Felicity Dennis, Membership Officer (VIC & TAS), and is excited to meet with members, engage with the sector and the upcoming programs scheduled for the remainder of the year and beyond.
