This a new post designed to galvanize delivery of our environmental goals for 2030 which will see the business become net carbon zero and zero waste by the end of the decade, while also contributing to a significant increase in biodiversity in its communities.
Tor will sit on the business’ Executive Committee and lead a team that combines the current sustainability and innovation functions.
James Raynor, CEO, Grosvenor Britain & Ireland, said: “Climate change is the single biggest risk to our business today and we need to transform the way we do business to meet that challenge. Tor understands Grosvenor exceptionally well, having worked in different roles across the estate for nearly ten years. Her proven ability to lead change on the ground and get a host of different stakeholders bought in to a common goal will be crucial to us going zero-carbon, zero-waste and ensuring we are fit for the future. I am delighted to start my tenure as CEO with such a critical appointment.”
