How Alwyn is building a better working world

“Businesses in the manufacturing and transport sectors have the potential to realise transformational, economy-wide change due to their operational footprints. This extends beyond the environmental impact of own operations, into support for social and economic development and transformation across complex and multi-jurisdictional supply chains.

“I work with our AM&M clients to help them understand the changing macro-environment, and to respond by prioritising, planning and delivering sustainability action across their value chains.”
