We’re celebrating our fourth year of delivering business value for a better world. We’re incredibly proud of our growth to date, as well as the many milestones we’ve achieved in such a short period of time.
Anthesis started as an idea that in-between the large multi-disciplinary consulting firms, where sustainable solutions are merely a bolt-on to a different core business and the small local ‘boutique’ firms, was uncongested space for a specialist to operate. We are a global and local firm, dedicated to assembling the expertise and delivery capacity to support organisations migrating from high carbon and unsustainable models and markets to low carbon and sustainable futures.
Our short history, combined with the much longer history of the businesses we’ve acquired, has reinforced our view that the market wants an implementation partner that can operate at the nexus of sustainability and technology, with the ability to deliver solutions to mainstream business.
Luckily, the 250 people who have joined the Group in the last four years have a shared passion for this mission and have been able to unite behind this common vision.
On our fourth birthday, Stuart McLachlan, Chief Executive of the Anthesis Group, said:
“In the next 30 years businesses, cities and nations will need to go through transformational change in response to risk and opportunity related to climate impact, sustainable use of resources and the creation of shared value. Solutions will require the amalgamation and collaboration of deep technical expertise, deployed practically and commercially across borders and using technology to enable delivery at scale.
Unlike many other organisations, each individual and each office in Anthesis is a gateway to a global resource pool. We are driven by our ability to deliver a positive impact for our clients. Our horizontal axis is as strong as our vertical axis and we empower our staff to do the right thing by our clients and by their friends and colleagues that they work with.”
