Services

Focused support for small and mid-sized Northern Ireland businesses — especially manufacturers — dealing with UK and EU carbon and environmental rules.

CBAM and CSRD

Stacked shipping containers at a port — Two carbon regimes, one supply chain.

Northern Ireland manufacturers often trade into both the UK and EU markets, which means navigating two sets of carbon rules at once. I help you work out:

whether the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) affect you, directly or through your customers
what emissions and supply-chain data you’ll need, and where to get it
how to prepare without building a reporting burden you don’t need

Carbon inventories

Food production workers at a stainless-steel line — Every product has a footprint behind it.

A carbon inventory measures your organisation’s greenhouse gas emissions across its operations and supply chain. Done well, it gives you:

a credible baseline for customers, lenders and tender requirements
better conversations with suppliers and customers about where emissions really sit
non-financial management information your board can use

ESOS

Pipework and plant in an industrial plant room — Most energy savings are found in the plant room, not the report.

I offer the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme as a service, delivered with experienced ESOS Lead Assessors. I recommend running ESOS alongside a carbon inventory and a review of your energy contracts, so the work produces savings rather than just compliance.

Contaminated land

A young tree growing on rough ground — Land can recover, once you know what's in it.

Advice on land contamination risk, due diligence and remediation in Northern Ireland. Site investigation, testing and remediation are delivered through specialist partner firms, with me managing the work on your behalf.

Public affairs and communications

As a member of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations, I support organisations with:

consultation responses and policy positioning
briefing MLAs, councillors and officials
communicating environmental commitments credibly — without greenwash

Councils, public bodies and trade bodies

I also work with district councils, public bodies and trade associations: carbon baselines for council operations, climate planning, contaminated land readiness, member briefings and consultation responses. I’m open to quotations, supplier frameworks and tenders. See public sector services.

How I work

Every engagement starts with a conversation about what you actually need. I’d rather help you do the right amount of work well than sell you a bigger project.
