Anyone here working in corporate sustainability? I think ‘sustainability’ is often conflated with climate change but it’s so much more. I’m focused on the ES&G elements from a corporate wide perspective (ie not from a purely investment analysis angle). Im interested to hear from those with experiences of getting people from across the org to feed in to sustainability metrics and reporting. Say for example HR feeding in with DE&I metrics.

I haven’t had experience with internal reporting, but with external reporting I find you’re either pulling teeth or the metrics “look bad”. Maybe I’m cynical but I find people don’t like to measure things that they’re going to perform poorly in.

I now work in corp leading sustainability and ESG for a >$3B and <$7B retailer. Step one: connect with leaders across the org with a clear focus on 1) getting to know them well as people beyond just their roles, 2) getting to know the business, value drivers, politics, power/influence nodes, information/insights nodes, brand intricacies, supply chain details, and sponsors and history of DE&I, philanthropy, community engagement, employee resource groups, employee volunteerism, environmental, climate, etc. 3) aligning all sustainability priorities with business strategy, BU or functional objectives, and creating value, 4) find low hanging fruit and quick wins before trying to tackle anything big or sacred (brand, strategy, mission, vision, purpose) 5) if public, deeply understand and prioritize a roadmap and flight path of disclosures to align with TCFD and SASB/VRF and 6) as of Monday, Try to be one step ahead of giving your CFO and IR group some thoughts on how to plan and price out being ready for SEC disclosure rules, should they pass as is plus thoughts on if/how they may be watered down and the implications.

Step 2: execute, measure, adjust.

Thanks for details and insight. With my education as Civil/Environmental engineer, 5 yrs of civil experience, 15 yrs of IT , what roles should I be looking for in Sustainability.?

I have been working on this space for few years. I totally agree, getting data especially from Vendors is very difficult when you have. To report for Scope 3. Company tend to plug in their own numbers. Will be happy to chat about it
