Biography

Ellen Brooks is Chief Executive Officer of Village Capital, listed with that title on the organisation's own team page. Village Capital announced her appointment on 6 August 2025, effective September 2025. Its announcement states that she joined Village Capital from the International Rescue Committee, where she was Director of Innovative Finance, and that prior to the IRC she served as a Vice President for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa in J.P. Morgan's Private Banking division. She succeeded Allie Burns, who stepped down after 6.5 years as CEO and more than nine years with the organisation. Village Capital's announcement does not name any university or degree, and a negative-control pass on that page returned NOT PRESENT for an education sentence, so education is left empty. No investment is attributed to her by name in any Village Capital announcement read for this record, and no current board seat could be sourced.
