EXECUTIVE INSIGHT
WHAT DOES YOUR CURRENT ROLE INVOLVE
?
As CSO for WSH , I oversee our ESG programme , shaping , communicating and tracking our social and environmental sustainability commitments . I chair our ESG Board and engage with our different teams and businesses every week to galvanise and drive positive change . Recently , we recruited more than 50 internal sustainability ambassadors eager to go on the journey with us .
“ OUR TEAMS ARE HUNGRY FOR CHANGE ON SUSTAINABILITY , AND OUR ESG STRATEGY SECOND NATURE IS UNITING US ON TAKING POSITIVE ACTION ”

HOW INVOLVED WERE YOU IN THE WSH ROADMAP FOR NET ZERO
Our commitment to net zero sits under Step Up , one of the four pillars of our ESG programme , meaning identifying emissions-related data , capturing , reporting and analysing it , leading action planning and developing initiatives is led by the Step Up working group lead , who reports to me .
As we have been building the roadmap , understanding our most significant impact areas – where we have more direct control and influence – has been vital . To make it actionable for our teams , we ’ ve provided each business with their individual CCF and agreed reduction targets and priorities for each of them .
