About Will
As an engineering graduate Will spent the first part of his career as a management consultant, working at large companies such as Mercedes Benz, Centrica, British Gas Trading and Yellow Pages before taking Director level roles at global technology and SaaS businesses. With expertise across Operations, Customer service, Sales and Marketing Will’s passion is driving positive change.
In 2019 he was tasked with introducing a sustainability programme for global SaaS provider Advanced. Along with the responsibility for leading the programme Will also represented Advanced on the Vista (Private Equity Provider) Sustainability Leadership Board, made up of 50 leaders across the Vista software portfolio - this provided him a unique insight into the approach to sustainability for some of the fastest growing companies in the world.
This insight, and the sustainability programme rolled out for Advanced was recognised by vmware in 2022 when it won the social impact of the year award.
This award was the catalyst for Will to setup ConsultESG as he saw the business and environmental improvements that are achievable when aligned to clear sustainability programmes.
His aim is to bring best practice sustainability expertise to small and medium sized businesses who do not have dedicated resources, enabling them unlock the commercial and societal benefits which come from ESG.
