Meet our Trustee: Benjamin Jardine

Social Value International Welcomes New Trustee Benjamine Jardine.

Social Value International (SVI) is delighted to announce that Benjamine Jardine has joined our Board of Trustees. Benjamine brings a wealth of leadership experience and a passion for driving innovation to create real social impact.   

Benjamine currently serves as the CEO of the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of families affected by type 1 diabetes. He is also a Director at SIMNA and a Non-Executive Director at MSWA. 

With a diverse background spanning the healthcare and social sectors, Benjamine is driven by a belief that solving today's wicked problems requires challenging the status quo and bold new approaches. As he puts it, "The wicked problems of today will not be solved with traditional thinking, nor is the answer simply 'thinking more like a business.' Instead, real innovation comes from challenging the status quo, articulating a compelling vision for the future, and having the discipline, commitment, energy, and drive to make tangible, concrete steps towards it." 

Benjamine seeks to work with organizations passionate about health and social care that also have the courage to reshape approaches to meet society's evolving needs. His mindset aligns perfectly with SVI's mission to transform how society accounts for value. 

"We are excited to have Benjamine join our Board," said Ben Carpenter , CEO of SVI. "His track record of leadership and commitment to transformative change through innovation will be an invaluable asset as we work to advance the principles of social value accounting globally." 

In his new role as a Trustee, Benjamine is eager to help SVI promote new ways of understanding and creating value that account for impacts on all stakeholders and the environment. "I am passionate about making a real difference in the lives of people and communities," he said. "SVI is doing vital work in redefining how we measure and incentivize the creation of true social value. I'm honoured to join the Board and contribute to this important mission." 

With the addition of innovative thinkers like Benjamine Jardine, SVI is well-positioned to accelerate the growth of the social value movement worldwide. Please join us in welcoming Benjamine to the SVI Board of Trustees.
