Bio
Kartina Tahir Thomson
Belinda is a crucial hire for the IFoA Foundation, at its infancy. She brought invaluable third sector experience and led the operational and strategic growth of the Foundation in the first two years. Her style is collegiate and she works well with the Foundation’s stakeholders, including the Trustees and donors. Belinda will add a significant amount of relevant experience and energy to any project she embarks on.
Micky Denehy
I worked with Belinda when I was running new business for Saatchi & Saatchi EMEA, we were keen to start some serious conversations with senior marketers and Belinda played a pivotal role in helping us do this. She is a motivated and engaging lady, great at starting conversations and knowing how to open doors. Belinda set up a number of great new business opportunities for Saatchi & Saatchi by creating strong connections with prospects from the outset. She is thoroughly professional but more importantly fun to work with and gets results, I would recommended her strongly for projects she is keen to pursue.

Founded in 2004 by The Duchess of Kent and Nicholas Robinson, Future Talent supports young musicians from low-income backgrounds with financial and personal guidance to enable them to flourish on their musical journey. With high impact and innovative programmes lead by a dynamic team, supported by an impressive range of Ambassadors and Trustees from the worlds of music, entertainment, education, politics and business, we provide a bridge through our Young Musicians Development Programme, offering unique opportunities for young musicians to build confidence, develop personal skills, and enhance musical experience. It is estimated that as a result of deprivation, thousands of children with exceptional musical abilities are lost from our society every year and, with the help of our generous supporters, our vision is to reach every one of these children and help to make them sparkle.
