Sustainability & Climate
From pledge-era ESG to attestation-era climate. We deliver leadership that survives an SEC climate rule audit, a CSRD assurance cycle and a say-on-climate vote in the same fiscal year.
Climate has migrated from a CSR overlay to a primary disclosure regime with criminal and civil exposure. We have placed CEO, Chief Sustainability Officer, Chief Climate Officer, Chief Risk Officer and General Counsel benches across pure-play climate-tech, decarbonisation infrastructure, carbon-market participants and adaptation-finance platforms.
Pure-play climate-tech, decarbonisation infrastructure, carbon markets, adaptation finance.
Including 17 with full board vote and proxy-vote accountability.
Including the first CCO appointments at two G-SIBs and a global supermajor.
Every successor scored against ISSB, CSRD, SEC climate rule and TNFD in parallel.
212 mandates across four regions.
We deliver this sector out of five global hubs — Sydney (HQ), Singapore, London, New York and Dubai — anchored to discrete supervisory regimes. Regional Managing Partners hold the primary client relationship; the global sector lead governs methodology, calibration and quality.
Sydney · Singapore · Tokyo · Seoul
ASX climate-tech, ASEAN carbon markets, Australian Climate-Active certified entities.
London · Amsterdam · Copenhagen · Berlin
FTSE-listed decarbonisation, Nordic climate-tech, EU ETS infrastructure.
New York · San Francisco · São Paulo
S&P 500 climate-tech, North-American adaptation infrastructure, Latin-American voluntary carbon.
Dubai · Riyadh · Cape Town
GCC sovereign climate programmes, African nature-based solutions, sovereign hydrogen.
What we are calibrated to deliver.
CCO scoring across ISSB IFRS S2, CSRD, SEC climate rule and TNFD obligations simultaneously.
Operator scoring under ICVCM Core Carbon Principles and VCMI Claims Code of Practice.
CSO and HR-bench scoring under ILO Just Transition Guidelines and SBTi corporate net-zero standard.
Capital-allocation bench scoring for physical-risk integration under TCFD and CDP frameworks.
The exposure pattern we price into every slate.
FTC, ACCC, CMA and EU UCPD enforcement now extends to board-level oversight of environmental claims.
CSRD limited-assurance failures correlate with subsequent CSO and CFO removal within 12 months.
ICVCM and VCMI alignment failures trigger immediate retail and institutional-buyer exit cascades.
Nature-related dependency disclosure is the next-cycle equivalent of climate-risk attribution rigour.
Anonymised by code; defensible by record.
Every engagement opens under NDA-by-default discretion. The mandates below are surfaced with code, region, remit and outcome — the underlying entity, candidate and counterparty detail remains under confidentiality envelope and is only disclosable on engagement under reciprocal NDA.
Inaugural CCO with full board vote; preceded successful say-on-climate vote with 94% support and CSRD limited-assurance pass.
Paired appointments installed 11 months ahead of compliance date; first audit cycle cleared with no remediation conditions.
Successor with combined ICVCM and ASEAN voluntary-market regulator credentials; preserved ACCU and ASEAN VCM operating posture.
First Chair across the GCC hydrogen consortium with combined IFI and EU-state regulator credentials.
The regulatory regimes encoded into every successor score.
Each successor in this sector is scored against the regimes below. The skills-matrix is refreshed continuously by the firm's Regulatory Architect team as supervisory expectations migrate — the most recent calibration was applied to every live slate in the current quarter.
Multi-framework calibration encoded into CSO/CCO bench requirements.
Carbon-market governance encoded into operator scoring.
Net-zero target conformity scored as a board-level skills matrix item.
Just-transition operating model encoded into HR-bench scoring.
Brief the Sustainability & Climate practice lead.
Every sector engagement opens under NDA-by-default discretion and is governed by the regional Managing Partner. Initial briefings are conducted in person or under secure-channel video — never over open email.
