Recipient of the Messengers of Peace Hero award, as well as an accomplished speaker on overcoming hardships and finding the motivation to succeed.Omar is now pursuing a career in management consulting thanks to his experience as a Bennelong Foundation Scholar.
The Bennelong Foundation has given me the opportunity to build ‘the foundation’ of my corporate career and I’m moving into an exciting role as a strategy consultant at Deloitte.
