I help businesses turn complex sustainability requirements into practical plans, strategies and deliverables they can actually use. My work includes sustainability strategy, EPR and packaging compliance, B Corp, carbon footprints, Scope 3, Net Zero and ESG assessments. Whether you need to understand a new requirement, assess where your business currently stands or build a practical roadmap, I can help you work out what matters and what to do next. I'm an award-winning sustainability consultant with more than 20 years' experience working with global brands, SMEs and start-ups across the UK, Europe, US and Australasia. My wider experience includes materiality, stakeholder engagement, responsible sourcing, circular economy, sustainability reporting and sustainability communications. Before founding GB Sustainability, I held senior corporate responsibility roles with ALDI in the UK and Australia and worked in responsible retail and sustainability consultancy. This means I understand both the technical side of sustainability and the practical realities of implementing it inside a business. Clients typically bring me in when they need to: • understand a complex sustainability requirement or problem; • assess where their business currently stands; • develop a practical sustainability, carbon or Net Zero strategy; • turn data and analysis into a clear roadmap or deliverable; or • get an experienced independent perspective on sustainability work. I work independently, communicate clearly and focus on producing practical work that helps clients make better decisions and move forward. If you have a sustainability challenge and aren't yet sure what the right approach looks like, send me a message and tell me what you're trying to achieve.

You can’t do everything. You started this business with a vision and you’re the reason it’s a success, but when there are no systems, every customer, every decision and every problem run through you. You need a partner who can build these systems. Someone who can design lasting processes, create clear SOPs and implement technology that makes your business run easier. Someone who is equal parts strategy and execution. ✅ I build systems and processes that transform the way your business operates. My number one objective is to partner with you to shape and execute your vision. I do this through: → Commercial lifecycle management → Project leadership → Supplier and contractor coordination → Strategic thinking and planning → Process improvement and workflow automation → Software design and implementation ✅ Here’s what my clients are saying about me: "I’d definitely recommend him - solid work, good communication, and someone you can rely on to get things done properly.” “A very professional freelancer who adds real value - I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again or recommend him to others." “Working with Jordan has been a game changer for my business. He’s helped us to re-evaluate our priorities, what we invest our time in and prepare for scale. Couldn’t recommend him enough!” Great businesses are built on great partnerships. Could this be yours?

Most founders I speak to got into business because they love the product. Not the numbers Either they're sitting on too much stock, watching cash get tied up in product that isn't moving or constantly selling out of their best seller & the thought of digging into the numbers to fix it feels overwhelming. Or they're selling and growing but if you asked them right now "is your business actually profitable?" they couldn't tell you with confidence. And that's a stressful place to be. Or their pricing strategy - full price, sale and promos are a last minute thought, with so much opportunity that's difficult to see when pricing's not your bag Some (actually most) are dealing with all at once. The Truth - you don't need to become a numbers person, you just need the right person in your corner who is one. I've spent 12 years in fashion & ecommerce specialising in profitability, stock management & pricing. I was the first person in luxury fashion to build and lead a dedicated pricing & profit department. Since going independent, I've helped founders double their monthly sales, clear £10m of overstock, reduce overstocks by 86%, take net margin from negative to +6% in four months, and generate £4m in annual revenue through smarter pricing & range planning strategies. My goal is simple: you focus on the product, I create the profit.
