Corporate Sustainability
Corporate sustainability is about building organisational resilience by delivering long-term social and economic value whilst working within environmental limits. Our corporate sustainability service is about opening doors for our clients – identifying new markets, reducing risk, whilst minimising or ideally preventing any environmental and social harm.
The context for this has changed – this is not just about the impact that an organisation has on people and the environment but also on the external pressures faced by businesses from issues such as; resource constraints, climate change, supply chain issues, public perception and pressure from the regulatory and policy landscape. At Waterman we strive to have a positive influence through the business we do and want to pass this onto our clients. We have experts able to cover issues including; energy, carbon, waste, water, procurement, supply chains, community based issues, learning and development, sustainable investment consulting (ESG), communication and reporting.
