Fractional ESG Support
Most of my fractional clients come to me with the same situation: investors and customers are asking for sustainability data and reporting, and there's no one internally to own it. On retainer, I step in as that person. I handle reporting cycles, respond to ESG questionnaires, track progress against your commitments, and stay on top of the day-to-day so you don't have to.
What this looks like in practice
Every engagement is scoped to what your business actually needs. Typical work includes:
Managing annual ESG reporting cycles and data collection
Responding to investor and customer ESG questionnaires and RFPs
Tracking progress against sustainability commitments and targets
Supporting framework alignment (SASB, GRI, CDP, TCFD)
Advising on ESG communications and disclosures
Coordinating with internal teams on data collection and reporting
What you walk away with
-
A consistent ESG presence without adding to your headcount
-
Reporting and disclosures you can stand behind
-
Faster turnaround on investor and customer requests
-
A partner who understands your business, not just the frameworks
Who this is for
This tends to be the right fit for PE-backed companies navigating ESG requirements for the first time, growing organizations that need consistent ESG support between reporting cycles, companies facing increasing pressure from investors or customers without the internal capacity to respond, and leadership teams that want ESG handled properly without managing it themselves.
How I Work
Every retainer starts with a conversation about what's actually on your plate. From there we agree on a monthly scope and adjust as your needs change. Most clients come in for a specific project and end up staying on for ongoing support.
