GLOBAL NET ZERO CAREERS ABOUT SEARCH Our Sustainability Policy Committed to running our business in a responsible, sustainable way “ Sustainability is at the very heart of what we do – working with other organisations to develop, manage and promote their social and environmental activities. But this isn’t just a business strategy; each individual at Anthesis is personally committed to sustainability and actively looks for ways to make a difference.“ Stuart McLachlan CEO We are pleased to present our 2021 sustainability policy. As the world’s largest group of dedicated sustainability experts, we are aware of our organisation’s impacts on an environmental and societal level. As a fully certified B Corp™ we are legally bound to manage these impacts, for the benefit of all our stakeholders – our employees, our clients, our suppliers, our shareholders – and of course, for society and the environment at large. Transparency is a core value of our organisation, and we are committed to openly communicating our sustainability progress with all our stakeholders.
