- Worked on large scale procurement projects (cumulative sourcing value >£1bn), with a major automotive manufacturer, contributing to negotiation strategy and auction design.- Part of a 3 person team which created a roadmap for how a key government organisation can achieve net zero emissions by 2040.

- Worked for 10 weeks in the Climate Strategy Practice Group on two consultancy projects for the Colombian government and an international resource extraction company respectively.- Project 1: I researched and prepared a briefing note on Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA) as a framework for deciding how the Colombian government should allocate revenues from its carbon tax i.e how to decide which projects in climate adaptation and mitigation receive funding or subsidy. I also helped organise stakeholder workshops for MCA implementation.- Project 2: I researched and created client-focused presentations on the compliance regulations for Carbon Offset schemes in jurisdictions of interest to the client, including the Western Climate Initiative and Australia. These will help the client prepare for expansion into new jurisdictions and reduce the cost of their compliance obligations in existing operations.
