Director, UK, Anthesis

Part of the UK Senior Leadership Team, Tim is the Director for Financial Services, based in London. Tim joined from Ramboll in 2017 where he was responsible for developing ESG services in Europe. Tim has over twenty years of experience. His initial focus was on the direction of multi-site, multi-jurisdictional EHS due diligence projects undertaken as part of M&A transactions and the provision of wider EHS advice and support.
