About Peter Wrinch
After a decade studying Russian revolutionary art and culture, Peter was drawn to the social change work of Pivot Legal Society. After a couple months volunteering, Peter was offered a contract position, a full-time position followed, and 5 years later Peter was named the Executive Director.
During his time as Executive Director, Peter rebuilt the society, democratized Pivot’s internal culture and brought the organization back from the brink. During these years, Pivot had a number of important wins including two unanimous Supreme Court of Canada judgements that have changed Canadian society dramatically. When Peter left Pivot, the banks accounts were full, the staff morale was high, and the organization’s reputation was bullet proof. Peter is a respected speaker and thought leader on organizational culture and structure, fundraising, organizing, and technology. He is now a Lead Organizer at NationBuilder.
He lives on Bowen Island with his young family.
