Freelance sustainability & ESG advisor with 12+ years’ experience supporting agencies and in-house teams. I work in the messy middle — where regulation, strategy and communications collide — helping teams turn complexity into clear, credible action. From CSRD and reporting to strategy refreshes and sustainability communications and content, I bring calm, senior support when the stakes are high.
I’ve spent my career working across the full sustainability system, from highly technical reporting and regulatory requirements through to strategy development, organisational change and communications. That slightly squiggly path means I’m comfortable diving into detail while keeping sight of how everything needs to connect.
In practice, my work spans:
• Regulation, reporting and disclosure (CSRD / ESRS, sustainability, ESG & non-financial reporting)
• Strategy and transformation (sustainability and climate strategy, double materiality assessments, targets, KPIs and implementation and operationalisation strategies)
• Engagement, communications and content (narrative development, reporting content, internal and external communications, workshops and facilitation)
