Business Development Lead - Sustainability

Company Description

Mineral (mnrl) began life in Devon as a sustainable communications agency in 2020, created to help businesses with the green recovery and develop purposeful business practices as we emerged from global lockdowns, but has now evolved to sit at the nexus of commercial strategy, sustainability and corporate communications.

Combining nearly 40 years’ demonstrable experience across sectors including Financial Services, Real Estate and Hospitality, we have the practical know-how and skills to deliver results with clients across sectors in which we enjoy working and can add value – aiming to deliver positive impacts across sustainability, ESG, Change and Corporate Communications.

At mnrl we stand for resilience, regeneration and accountability – advocating and embedding best practices across our clients’ business activities to uplift strategy, deliver credible engagement and improve sustainable performance – ensuring our impact is felt by their stakeholders, not our planet.
