Why I work for Seismic:

Because business needs to make a Seismic Shift – for the sake of the planet and all of us who live on it. I want to put my sustainability and business experience to best use alongside a world-class team of leading social and environmental experts, who are not only incredibly talented, but such great fun to work with.

My experience:

I love a challenge and businesses face a multitude of challenges today. I have a track record of helping businesses gain a competitive advantage and increased shareholder value through sustainability performance.

Some companies I’ve worked with:

I have worked directly with and led teams conducting work with clients including Tesco, Vodafone, Aldi, Aviva, JLL, Ted Baker, PWC, Lily’s Kitchen, Bank of England, 10 Downing Street, BT, Crown Estate and the National Trust.

A seismic change I’d like to see in the future:

I’d like a future where B Corps and Net Zero emissions commitments become legally binding for all companies, globally.

Where I like to be:

I grew up on the Isle of Wight, and needed to learn to sail to escape! I love to be with great company, in exhilarating weather sailing somewhere wild or exotic.
