How I Can Help

I'm available for everything from growing your organisation to getting the evidence and foundations right. Edge remains in the picture for delivery scale. My role is different and complementary, built to be direct and responsive to live issues and opportunities.

Technical Advisor & Reviewer

Sustainability claims that survive due diligence.

Independent technical review and senior advisory across life cycle assessment, carbon strategy, circular economy, product transparency, and the built environment. Hands-on technical work, standards development, and making complex sustainability assessments defensible and actionable. Equally comfortable advising on sustainability technology platforms as on the underlying science.

The Two-Week Review

A sharp, board-ready review of your sustainability approach, messaging, and strategy: fixed scope, fixed timeframe, independent. You get a clear read on what holds up, what does not, and what to do next. It's a direct way to work together before anything larger.

Senior Counsel on Retainer

From boardroom strategy to the LCA numbers.

An ongoing arrangement for boards, founders, and leadership teams who want direct access to senior input without standing up a new function. The scope runs the full range: building a successful organisation, integrating sustainability and technology where they give you a commercial edge, and getting hands-on when the technical detail needs checking. Different from a consultancy engagement: smaller, more direct, responsive to what's actually on the table. Complementary to delivery teams already in place, including my colleagues at Edge.

Example engagements
  • Ongoing senior counsel retainer with regular working sessions and on-call access for live decisions
  • Quarterly strategic reviews of growth, sustainability strategy, positioning, and the decisions on the table
  • External voice on specific initiatives, including independent technical review, advisory committee participation, and selective public representation
Looking for
  • Founders and leadership teams who want senior strategic input on demand
  • Boards that need independent expertise between formal meetings
  • Climate tech and sustainability ventures with live decisions on the table

Advisory Boards & NED

Governance your board can defend publicly.

Sustainability governance and climate risk oversight at board level, from someone who is science-literate, willing to challenge assumptions, and focused on translating commitments into governance that holds. Director and Chair across three companies, with industry governance experience including EPD Australasia, ALCAS, and the UNEP Life Cycle Initiative.

See the full board and NED page, with fit, remuneration, and track record →

Example engagements
  • Non-executive director seat with sustainability and climate risk in the portfolio
  • Advisory board chair or member shaping sustainability strategy and disclosure
  • Independent director on a sub-committee for sustainability, risk, or capital allocation where climate is becoming material
Ideal organisations
  • Growth-stage and mid-cap businesses (typically Series C and beyond, ASX-listed mid-cap, or PE-backed scaleups) where sustainability is moving from compliance to material strategy
  • Boards facing mandatory sustainability and climate-related financial disclosure (AASB S2, ISSB, CSRD-equivalent) who want a director who can carry the conversation and challenge what they're told
  • Organisations where capital decisions, customer wins, or licence to operate are starting to turn on sustainability evidence

How I Work

Speaking & Thought Leadership

I also speak and run executive and board sessions on sustainability governance, entrepreneurship, and scaling purpose-led companies. If that is useful alongside an engagement, or on its own, just ask.

Let's Talk

If you're at a decision point where experience building, scaling, and governing sustainability would help, I'd welcome the conversation.
