At Brand Addition, responsibility isn't just a value-it's the way we do business. We're committed to making a positive difference for our clients, our people, our communities, and our planet
What You'll Be Doing
Lead our sustainability strategy:
• Develop and deliver Brand Addition's sustainability roadmap, aligned with our parent company's ESG commitments. • Set clear sustainability goals and track progress against them.
Own our reporting and compliance:
• Build systems to capture and manage sustainability data on the product that we supply and the services we consume. • Lead internal and external reporting, including SECR, ESOS, Producer Responsibility, and ESG requirements. • Publish our annual sustainability report in line with global standards (e.g. GRI).
Support teams and clients:
• Be the go-to expert on sustainability across procurement, product development, operations, and marketing. • Partner with Account Directors to help clients make informed, sustainable choices that move them closer to their net-zero goals.
Engage our value chain:
• Lead sustainability assessments such as Ecovadis and CDP. • Collaborate with suppliers to reduce emissions and environmental impact from sourcing through to delivery. • Contribute to tenders, RFPs, and client audits to maintain best-in-class standards.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for a strategic thinker, a problem-solver, and a true sustainability advocate. You'll bring:
• Proven experience leading sustainability initiatives within a business environment. • Strong knowledge of ESG frameworks, sustainability legislation, and reporting standards. • Experience working with consumer goods (garments, textiles, small electrics, drinkware, paper goods, packaging). • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills. • A collaborative, proactive mindset with the ability to inspire change. • Bonus: Experience with sustainability assessments (Ecovadis, CDP), data systems, and client engagement.
Your Background
You'll likely have:
• A track record of delivering sustainability strategies in businesses with global procurement, outsourced manufacturing, and customisation. • Experience driving improvements in indirect supply chains. • Familiarity with SECR, ESOS, TCFD, GHG Protocol, GRI, CDP, and Ecovadis. • Strong analytical skills and confidence with sustainability data and reporting tools.
