Introducing our newest recruits: Account Directors Sarah Bedenoch and Stefanie Kessler

Media Release 13 January 2010

Pareto Fundraising is pleased to announce the appointment of Sarah Badenoch and Stefanie Kessler, two new Account Directors to be based in our Sydney Office.

COO Jim Hungerford says “Sarah and Stefanie will be a great asset for Pareto Fundraising. They bring with them a wealth of experience and are passionate about increasing the fundraising capacity of our clients, something that is central to the beliefs and values within our organisation.”

Sarah is a senior marketing executive with broad commercial and agency experience. Most recently she has been Head of Marketing for Aon Consulting; with previous roles in customer retention, customer relationship management and marketing communications; along with seven years’ of agency experience including time at Rapp Collins/DDB Australia.

She has had significant experience during this time working for not-for-profit organisations, however it was her recent experience on an advisory board for the National Breast Cancer Foundation that convinced her to make the leap to Pareto Fundraising.

Stefanie joins Pareto Fundraising as of 1st February. Stefanie has fantastic fundraising and management experience having worked with Greenpeace Australia, Wateraid UK and the Sydney 2002 Gay Games.

A particular claim to fame of hers is the dramatic results she has achieved in Greenpeace’s donor retention, where she reduced the attrition among their first-year donors from an already-respectable 25 percent to a stunning 16 percent.
