Examples of our real estate ESG consultancy deliverables for Black Mountain Partners in London, UK

Alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Evidence of aligning the business with UN Sustainable Development goals, specifically three were elected as targets where most impact can be made:

3/ Good Health & Wellbeing

11/ Sustainable Cities & Communities

13/ Climate Action

An ESG-led development strategy

Evidence of the company having adopted the systems thinking strategies of the Circular Economy and Cradle to Cradle in the initial selection of its Developments and subsequently in their design, delivery and ongoing operation, right through to re-purposing or demolition later in the building’s life.

Employee Satisfaction Survey

We carried out an employee satisfaction survey in July 2020, using these outputs to identified a number of key themes to target for employee engagement over the coming year, then attached an action to each of them and scheduled follow-up 1-on-1 sessions with the CEO for a later date. Key themes included office acoustics, indoor air quality, biophilia and plants, nutrition in the office kitchen and active ergonomics.

Creation of a Company-wide Environmental Policy

We wrote an overview of the company’s approach to systems thinking, demolition works, materials selection, in-built flexibility, lifecycle strategy, sustainable site selection as well as location & transportation objectives as they relate to green building.

Social Enterprise Partnerships & Community Outreach Plan

We implemented a comprehensive series of social enterprise partnerships as part of a community outreach program, many of these changes also have a positive impact on creating a healthy office too. From office soap supplies by The Soap Coto fairtrade organic coffee by Cafedirect an award-winning B Corp business, carbon neutral BELU mineral water, fruit delivered in biodegradable boxes by Fruitful in Croydon and ethical stationery supplies via fully carbon neutral EthStat.

Net Zero Carbon Building Commitment

We helped the business commit to following the World Green Building Council Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment that states all buildings within the portfolio should be Net Zero Carbon by 2030 at the latest.

Staff Training & Professional Development Plan

We arranged for a number of additional staff training sessions including mental health first aider training and LEED Green Associate study.

GRESB Assessment submission

We planned and delivered the company’s first annual GRESB real estate ESG assessment submission. This is both a considerable amount of project administration on the one hand and tactical implementation of multiple smaller components of a wider ESG strategy for the business as a whole (see example above).

Mental Health Awareness

We aligned the company with the Lord Mayor's Appeal Healthy City campaign around promoting greater mental health awareness in the workplace by assigning a mental health officer who took specific training to become a Mental Health First Aider with Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) England, a social enterprise offering specialist workplace training.

Waste Management Strategy
