Ms Belinda Tan was appointed as Senior Consultant to NCSS on 9 March 2025. Prior to the appointment, she served as the Director of Philanthropic Experience within the Philanthropic Group, and the Director of Fund Allocation, before the Fund Allocation team expanded to become Funding, Outcomes, and Standards in July 2020. As the Director of Fund Allocation, Belinda successfully managed up to $390 millions in funding at its peak and implemented three COVID-related funds to support social service agencies and those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Her journey with NCSS began on 30 September 2002, and over the years, she has taken on various portfolios in NCSS, including roles in Community Chest, Service Planning and Development, Corporate Communications, the Social Service Institute (SSI), as well as Funding, Standards and Outcomes.
