We’ve advocated sustainability for many years, but more recently our campaign has taken a different approach that empowers staff to use their ingenuity to deliver lasting value for all. We’ve made sense of sustainability as a strategy to deliver efficiencies by unleashing innovation. And we’ve made it a key area of engagement with customers to help them deal with aspects of sustainability they’re struggling with in order to develop their businesses. Our vision is to be the leading global partner in advancing social, environmental and economic wellbeing.
Our entry and presentation to the judging panel highlighted:
- Our new and fresh approach to sustainability as “using ingenuity to deliver lasting value for all”
- The five streams strategy roadmap to achieve our sustainability vision, and progress against these streams
- Internal engagement such as sustainability week, the sustainability forum and the sustainability awards
- Our ongoing process of interviewing major clients in the UK and internationally about sustainability
- Client engagement events on sustainability, including the carbon crunch event we hosted in November that was attended by more than 200 customers
- Our organisational, economic and social contributions in the UK
- Our work on the government’s Green Construction Board – partnering with the Department for Energy & Climate Change on the launch of a new online climate change modelling tool, the Global Calculator
The judges said: “Mott MacDonald had clearly placed sustainability at the heart of its organisation. There was clearly emphasis on the value sustainability brings. It is a real game changer.”
