About Sam Askew
Every person is unique and has a story. Every person has God-given strengths that are a part of their DNA. Every person has passions. When it comes to our jobs I believe we should be able to find a place that ties all those things together- your story, your strengths and your passions. Currently, I lead the Global Talent Acquisition team at Compassion International, where I not only get a chance to connect highly talented people to great jobs but also to something they are passionate about. I believe that we should always be learning from people who have gone before us while at the same time teaching and mentoring those coming behind. As part of my role at Compassion I get to run the college internship program where I get to see students with incredible skills see their career and calling collide. I am energized by being around people and I believe laughter should be a major part of all we do.

Because I deeply care for our global staff, I partner across functions to understand the unique needs of our people, identify growth opportunities, and bridge capability gaps.
