Let’s build this better world.

Hello, my name is Ben.

I work with companies to define and execute strategies that create clear business benefit by acting on social and environmental issues.

These benefits include employee engagement, brand reputation, customer preference, resource efficiency, government and investor relations as well as the use of sustainability as a platform for innovation.

While I work across all issues, I am currently focused on AI and how companies can create competitive advantage by minimising the environmental impact and maximising social benefits offered by this breakthrough technology.

My toolkit includes strategy, innovation and collaboration. I wrap this in layer of world class communications to ensure maximum impact and success of execution.

Past and current clients include leading Australian business Mirvac, Lendlease, NAB, Stockland, ALDI, Woolworths, GBCA, Unilever, Ben & Jerry’s, CDC Data Centres, Sydney Opera House and many more. Internationally, I have worked or work with Autodesk, Starbucks, Google, QuadReal, HongKong Land and HP Enterprise among others.

I also spend time in the world of startups and scale up’s as that is where many of the world changing innovations of the future are born, so helping nurture these companies is just as important to a sustainable future as working with established organisations. It also provides critical tools to bring innovation thinking into my larger clients.

Verticals I have the most experience in are built environment, technology and those with agricultural based value chains - namely food and beverage, retail apparel and horticulture.

While I recognise the importance of legislative reporting, it is not my focus. It is essential for trust and transparency, however it is fundamentally a compliance issue.

My focus is on the development of strategies and initiatives that drive competitive advantage by growing revenue and reputation.
