To whom it may concern.
I would like to recommend Ms. Ingrid Sprake as an excellent candidate for a position with your
organisation. I have known Ingrid in a professional capacity since 2012, where she was the Director
of Project Abroad’s Global Shark Programme.
Ingrid was instrumental in setting up a globally recognised international volunteer conservation
programme in Fiji. Due to Ingrid’s drive and vision, the project successfully expanded from its
initial remit for shark observation and now incorporates a scientifically rigorous data acquisition
component which is contributing towards sustainable fisheries management in Fiji. Working in Fiji
is extremely demanding, and the project’s current success is down to Ingrid’s drive, tenacity and her
ability to effectively multi-task to ensure effective management and growth.
Ingrid’s professionalism and enthusiasm extended beyond the parameters of her scope of work, and
she was always willing to offer assistance whenever required. When asked for input to one of our
projects, Ingrid ensured that we received thorough feedback and suggestions, which enabled us to
strengthen some of our programmatic areas.
I have no hesitation in stating that Ingrid would be an asset to any employer, and I recommend her
for any endeavour she chooses to pursue.
