Lisa Garson – Executive Director
“This has been an interesting year for me at Action Appointments. It was my first real sabbatical after 30 years in the business and gave me a chance to take a step back and watch the younger generation step into more senior roles. It was very heartwarming and rewarding to see how all our staff have developed the ability to provide a quality service without me breathing over their shoulders. It has given me license to play more of a guiding role in the business and focus more on the coaching side from next year.”
Tracy Nyman – Director: Recruitment and Operations
“Recruitment is a fulfilling and impactful job that is never completed.
You can always do more, but you need to accept that you can’t do everything.
That is why there is no I in TEAM.
Thank you to a great supportive team and I look forward to a fruitful 2025😊”
Melissa Asia – Recruitment and Marketing Manager
“Highlight of the year was assisting IREX/ACLFP with successful placements in Tanzania, Kenya and South Africa. It can be a real challenge but always interesting to work with candidates from different countries and getting to learn their cultures. Also currently assisting with the recruitment in Malaysia and Bangkok.
Very proud of the 38 successful placements I’ve made in 2024 (out of 112 placements as a team!)
Recruitment within the NGO/Development space is very fulfilling”
Callum Fraser – Director: Partnerships and Systems
“We have had another amazing year of introducing Action Appointments to the global stage.
We have realised that what we have been building as an affordable but expert and reliable service provider in the NGO space in Africa is something that the whole world has interest in. We can’t wait to keep growing our international partnership portfolio, having placed candidates in Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Italy, the United Kingdom and many more countries this year.
Also very exciting has been the continuation of our collaborations in just transition, climate activism and environmental justice. This sector needs to continue to grow in order to protect our planet for future generations.
A huge thanks to the driven AA team as we have all proved ourselves to be capable of delivering at a competitive level for any NGO position on the planet.”

This year, I also broadened my recruitment experience, successfully managing multiple placements across South Africa, Nigeria and Kenya.”
