Career

His business career began in marketing and sales with Rio Tinto Zinc from 1970 to 1974. He spent 1976 to 1983 with the World Bank in Washington, D.C., working on industrial and financial development in East Asia. He then worked for Robinson Packaging[2] in Derbyshire from 1983 to 1992, the last five as managing director.

He joined Oxfam in 1992 as international director with responsibility, latterly, for 2500 staff in seventy countries and for all Oxfam's policy, research, development and emergency work worldwide. He was awarded the OBE for services to Oxfam in June 2002.[3]

Wallis was the executive director of the New Economics Foundation from November 2003 until December 2015. He was also a trustee of the Overseas Development Institute and Habitat for Humanity and a member of the UK Social Investment Task Force. He was also vice chair of the World Economic Forum's Global Agenda Council on values and a Steward of their Inclusive Growth Initiative.
