RMS welcomes Bami Osidele as lay trustee
The RMS is delighted to welcome Bami Osidele as its newest lay trustee.
As part of the RMS Council, Bami will bring his expertise in fundraising and partnership-building, including a wealth of experience with cross-sector collaborations spanning health, sustainability and technology. Lay trustees are also afforded the same voting rights as an ordinary member and hold the same fiduciary duties.
Bami currently serves as National Partnerships Manager at Macmillan Cancer Support, where he leads multisectoral national partnerships to tackle inequities for people living with cancer. He has extensive experience in fundraising and programme design, having structured blended finance partnerships and secured funding with UNICEF, the IOM-UN, private foundations, corporations, and trusts. Bami's work has included launching carbon-financed health campaigns, creating sustainability-themed programmes, and developing digital inclusion initiatives.
Previously, he has led government engagement and ecosystem development for a $50M group of companies, contributed to UK Government innovation diplomacy efforts through the Go Global Africa Programme, and supported long-term systems change through partnerships with multilateral agencies.
Recognised by Tech Nation for his work blending fundraising, partnerships, and technology to create systemic impact, Bami is passionate about embedding equity, diversity, and co-creation into governance and fundraising strategy.
