Geldards has announced the appointment of Catherine Nightingale as Head of the Charities and Third Sector team.
Catherine previously spent the early part of her career at Geldards in the commercial property team, where she developed a specialism in advising charities undertaking property and funding matters. She then moved to the Charity team advising large and small charities across a range of sectors.
Catherine brings with her valuable insights from her most recent role as Head of Governance at Royal Voluntary Service, one of the sector’s largest volunteering charities. Catherine spent 12 years at the organisation ensuring the smooth operation of day-to-day governance, Trustee, and regulatory matters.
Jeff Pearson, Geldards CEO, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Catherine as the Head of Charities and Third Sector team, her reputation in the charity sector in Wales is impeccable. Catherine’s considerable sector experience and exceptional contribution to the third sector in Wales will drive the team to achieve continued success.”
Catherine Nightingale added:
“It is a great pleasure to be working once again with Geldards and their clients in the charity and third sector arena. I am very much looking forward to bringing the experience from my invaluable and much enjoyed time in the sector for the benefit of our clients.”
As a previous charity Trustee for both Arts Active Trust, an arts and music charity, and faith-based charity, Llandaff Diocesan Board of Finance, Catherine has an expert understanding of the issues facing charities and plays an active role in supporting the third sector.
