Phillip joined us at WSS as a Trustee in the summer of 2022 following 16 years of service with Shaw Trust/Careers Development Group. Initially brought on board to Shaw Trust/CDG as a Centre Manager to turn around a deteriorating training centre for adults. The centre assisted people with getting back to work as well as having a basic skills unit for those who needed initial help. The Centre was used by a broad spectrum of people from many backgrounds from labourers to executives, warehouse workers to heart Surgeons. Before that, he worked for 13 years with BHS as part of the Management team, with both organisations he has worked through enormous periods of change, growth, and improvement. Phillip will bring his broad skills and experience to Work Stress Solutions to work with all members of the board and delivery team allowing us to optimise the best possible range of services to our customers.

Raphaël joined WSS in the summer of 2023, with a background in strategy consulting and financial services. He hopes to use his skills and experience to help WSS reach the next stage of its development. He has always been sensitive to the needs of people who, through no fault of their own, might lack the skills and confidence to find fulfilment in work, which led him to provide help and assistance in his community.
