Sustainability is at the core of our business, and we are committed to supporting our clients in their own sustainability strategies.
Gary Metcalf, Director & Head of ESG and Design for Management and Siân Stephens, Associate Director – ESG lead our Sustainability Committee to drive positive action through our business and the properties we manage.
Our People working for Our Planet through Our Practices.We believe it is our responsibility to encourage our colleagues, clients, and occupiers to minimise the impact on the environmental and the buildings we manage.
Our environmental impact assessments help us evaluate a property’s energy, water, and waste consumption. We then tailor our recommendations to align with our clients’ and service partners’ sustainability goals and targets.
Our in-house utility team regularly monitors consumption and waste data, analyses trends, and identifies opportunities to develop Net Zero pathways.
Our team is central to our success.
We embrace diversity, understanding that different experiences breed new ideas. Our positivity gives our people the confidence to think differently and bring new suggestions to the table.
We want everyone to excel in their role and our commitment to health and wellbeing through our Mental Health First Aid and Mental Health Ambassador Programme is testament to this.
We listen and support in a non-judgemental and confidential manner in order to foster wellbeing and create a happy and productive working environment.
We have a solid framework of practices that promote collaboration, knowledge sharing and training.
Within that, we understand that we can use our abilities for skills-based volunteering to the benefit of the buildings and communities in which we work.
As well as supporting local groups and charities in our locations across the country, we have raised thousands of pounds for charities including Refuge, Mind, Cancer Research UK, Macmillan Cancer Support, One Great Day, Alzheimer’s Society and Healing Little Hearts.
