I see immense value in WES’ efforts to open doors for newcomers. This mission is deeply personal and close to my heart because I understand the challenges and opportunities that come with starting fresh in a new environment. WES not only helps individuals integrate and succeed but also fosters a sense of community and belonging. WES’ dedication to supporting newcomers inspires me and reinforces my commitment to this organization.

I never thought I’d want to stay at any organization for more than five years, but WES has changed my perspective. WES has allowed me to evolve my role, which has kept me engaged and committed.

The size of WES is ideal. It’s small enough for me to work on various projects and collaborate cross-functionally, yet large enough to provide ample resources and structure.

The international cultural exchange has been the most valuable aspect of working at WES for me. WES is a highly diverse organization where I’ve had the opportunity to meet and work with colleagues from around the globe and learn from them directly.

In our globalized world, understanding diverse perspectives is crucial. At WES, you have the opportunity to learn from people with different backgrounds, which greatly enhances your personal and professional development.

WES is committed to making meaningful impact in collaboration with our partners and the communities we work with to make positive changes.
