Fiona Cumming

Fiona Cumming is the Executive Director at the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Hong Kong (SPCA) and joined in February 2022. In her role, she is responsible for the overall leadership and strategic direction of the organisation.

Before the SPCA, Fiona spent 20 years at Goldman Sachs Asia L.L.C and she progressed through a number of different roles. With her extensive experience in bringing clarity to complex situations, Fiona is now leading the SPCA to modernise and refocus the 100+ year old organisation to meet future challenges, enabling it to meet its mission for the next decade and beyond. Her goal is to build a sustainable, forward looking SPCA which possesses the agility to evolve and adapt to a rapidly changing world.

Fiona and her family are the proud owners of their beloved mixed-breed dog, Luna and cats, Truffle and Toffee. All of which were adopted as rescue animals.

My Sustainability Goals for 2023:

Since I joined SPCA I have been promoting the importance of incorporating sustainable ways of working such as focus of waste minimization through a quest for a ‘paperless’ SPCA, increasing recycling and reuse across our operations by upcycling of newspapers, towels etc. Our new centre in Tsing Yi will have solar panels and will be awarded a silver award by the Hong Kong Green Building Council (HKGBC).
