• Lead the way in managing and monitoring social value commitments from our suppliers and partners.
• Collaborate with internal teams and external stakeholders to deliver projects that support local employment, skills development, and community growth.
• Create impact by producing compelling case studies, reports, and social media content that showcase the difference we’re making.
• Champion sustainability by supporting initiatives that tackle environmental challenges and promote ethical business practices.
