Environmental Strategy & Corporate Social Responsibility

Our Services

    Firetail helps businesses think about their environmental responsibility strategy.

    We have worked with a wide range of clients on environmental issues: NGOs like Stop Climate Chaos, Oxfam and Green Alliance; fast growing technology businesses like Betfair; and public sector organisations.

    We understand the latest thinking on climate change, whilst our background in strategy consulting means we understand how to make change happen in business.

    Our services include baseline carbon measurement, benchmarking, environmental strategy development, implementation and communication.

Why is this important?

    The reality of climate change has brought a new focus on businesses and their impact upon the environment.

    Progressive and well managed businesses are not waiting for regulation; they do not see a compliance issue, but a fundamental shift in the economy that presents opportunities for those who address the issue early and ambitiously.

    In this context, Corporate Social Responsibility can no longer be thought of as a box-ticking exercise or an afterthought. The idea that a firm can demonstrate that it is suitably caring or “thoughtful” through a series of additional activities is unsustainable, if the core business - “the day job“ remains unaffected.

    When firms are judged on their carbon footprint, the sustainability of their supply chain and the treatment of their workforce, firms realise that saying they are a good company is not enough. You have to be a good company, operationally as well as philosophically.

    This means going on a journey towards “total responsibility” in your value chain. No-one has all the answers, so it demands a pragmatic approach, a willingness to learn and transparency in communication.
