On this latest episode of How to Build a Better World, our managing editor Tina Perinotto talks to Mathew Nelson – the first Oceania chief sustainability officer at EY – about what’s getting big Fortune 500 companies ticking on the climate question.
For someone at the big end of town, leading the sustainability team at a company that’s 300,000 strong globally, he’s remarkably down to earth and happy to share practical insights into the big questions around our transition to low or zero carbon and what’s getting in the way.
Clients are larger businesses – ASX200 listed, NZ 50 listed or globally, fortune 500s – all big household names like BHP, Santos, Origin Energy, Mirvac, Stockland, and CSL.
That larger reach – coupled with the fact he’s been at the company for 20 years – means he’s able to see the broader trends in the ESG and climate space.
