Sustainability strategy & organisation
Sustainability strategy and organisation
Sustainability has become a core business lever — shaping revenue, cost, risk, and capital allocation. To unlock its full value, sustainability needs to be embedded into the heart of the company’s strategy, not treated as a parallel track. But not all sustainability topics are equally relevant. The key is focusing on what aligns with core business priorities, drives measurable outcomes, and is backed by a structure that enables execution.
We help companies define and deliver on sustainability strategies that drive value
Our approach goes beyond target-setting; we ensure sustainability becomes a core part of how a company positions itself, makes decisions, and operates. We work across all organisational levels to ensure strategies are not only ambitious but actionable, supported by the right governance, competencies, and culture.
Our team brings deep experience in both top-tier strategy consulting and investment. We understand how businesses and organisations work, and how sustainability integrates with broader commercial and operational objectives.
Defining the sustainability strategy
We support clients in developing sustainability strategies that are focused, grounded, and market-informed. Whether starting from a blank slate or aligning existing efforts, we focus sharply on the most business-critical areas, balancing opportunity capture with proactive risk management. Our process combines purpose definition (where needed), market and regulatory analysis, and ESG prioritisation. We define the company’s strategic position, identify high-impact initiatives, set measurable KPIs, and assess operating model implications to ensure execution readiness.
Organising for impact
We help design the organisational structure, operating model, and capabilities needed to deliver the strategy. This includes setting up cross-functional collaboration processes, enabling reliable data management, and ensuring sustainability is owned by the right people in the business. We also establish governance structures, leadership mandates, and integration points across departments, ensuring the strategy is institutionally anchored and execution is systematic.
Executing and communicating the strategy
Even the strongest strategy fails without follow-through. We support clients in mobilising the organisation, tracking progress, and building ownership across functions. We also help integrate the sustainability strategy into the broader corporate narrative and brand, working with communications and creative partners to ensure consistency and maximise the external impact of the work.
“We define sharp sustainability strategies and build the organisation to deliver, ensuring sustainability drives growth, resilience, and long-term value across the business.”
