Omschrijving

Senior ESG and Sustainability Consultant with extensive experience supporting organizations on ESG integration, CSRD alignment, compliance, and risk analysis.

I’ve worked across corporate investment and international development finance contexts, advising on environmental and social risk management, sustainability governance, and regulatory-driven ESG requirements. My work includes ESG due diligence, portfolio monitoring, and advisory support aligned with international standards and EU sustainability frameworks.

I am particularly experienced in bridging sustainability, compliance, and risk functions, helping organizations translate ESG requirements into practical, decision-ready insights.

I work primarily remotely and support clients across Europe and international markets on ESG strategy, CSRD readiness, and sustainability-related risk and compliance projects.
