Jack de Groot

CEO, St Vincent de Paul Society NSW (Vinnies)

​

Following various senior executive/advisory roles in the social sector, Jack has been leading the St Vincent de Paul Society NSW through a period of change since 2016, transforming one of Australia’s oldest and best-loved charities into a modern social service agency with robust infrastructure, strong governance and sustainable growth, and ensuring its ability to be responsive to the disruption and challenges facing the sector.
From embracing new social enterprise opportunities and building for the future through the 2020-22 Strategic Plan, to leading the call for a government commitment to social and affordable housing, Jack’s leadership is inspired by the Vinnies tradition of addressing poverty and inequality.
