Consulting Director -Business Resilience and ESG at Dieple Consulting & Training Limited
I help organisations translate sustainability ambition into governed, measurable action — across carbon, circular economy, supply chain ESG, reporting frameworks, and culture change.
With over 20 years of leadership across a FTSE 100 group, my own consultancy, and a senior role in a global medical device manufacturer, I bring an unusually broad foundation: supply chain governance, internal audit, financial reporting, programme management, and operational delivery — before dedicating the last five years entirely to ESG and sustainability strategy.
What I do
As founder of Dieple Consulting, I deliver ESG strategy, materiality assessments, responsible sourcing, human rights due diligence, and net zero strategy across sectors.
At CooperVision, I managed the portfolio of sustainability programmes and governance — driving Scope 1, 2 & 3 carbon accounting, leading regulatory gap analysis (CSRD, CSDDD, ISSB, PPWR), embedding sustainable procurement and circular economy principles, and providing ESG advisory across a global, multi-site organisation.
Where I add distinctive value
I sit at the intersection of technical ESG and governance rigour, and bring commercial and financial discipline to both. My ACCA qualification and years in internal audit mean I approach ESG data assurance-ready. My supply chain background means I understand how sustainability actually gets embedded at the operational level.
Across: carbon & GHG reporting · circular economy & EPR · supply chain ESG · CSRD, ISSB, EU Taxonomy · materiality assessment · ESG governance · board advisory · culture change.
Beyond the day job
Advisory Board Member, P3EB — UKRI-funded research consortium tackling plastic pollution through engineering biology. Host of Where Ideas Launch — The Sustainable Innovation Podcast (global top 5%). Author of Do What Matters. Regular sustainability awards judge and industry speaker.
What I'm looking for
Two things, and I'm equally open to either.
Senior sustainability roles — permanent or interim — across corporate ESG, advisory, or transformation: Head of Sustainability, ESG Manager, Sustainability Transformation Lead or equivalent, where I can bring strategic, technical, and operational depth to an organisation treating sustainability as a business imperative, not a compliance exercise.
Defined consulting projects through Dieple: carbon accounting and reporting readiness, ESG strategy and materiality, supply chain due diligence, or a programme that needs to land.
