  • provide independent support, guidance and challenge on the progress and implementation of the organisation’s strategic direction;
  • advise on performance and monitor implementation of business plans.

Jonathan Flory is a Senior Adviser at Social Finance Limited where he has spent over a decade working to develop innovation partnerships delivering finance to tackle complex and enduring social issues.
