Kier Group has appointed Tracey Collins as its new sustainability director.
Collins will take responsibility for the company’s environmental and social sustainability commitments, set out in its Building for a Sustainable World framework.
With 15 years of experience at Kier, Collins has most recently held leadership roles, including heading up the group’s approach to emerging talent, social sustainability, and diversity and inclusion.
Ben Stone will continue in his role as group head of environment, with Verity Magee leading social value.
“At Kier, our mission is to shape the future of infrastructure by building with purpose,” Collins said.
“A commitment to sustainability is at the heart of this – the future we build has to adapt to and protect against changing conditions, as well as creating jobs, infrastructure and opportunities which bring the most value to people across the UK.
“This is an important role, and at Kier we have the skill and commitment to make a real difference, and I’m thrilled to be a part of that.”
Louisa Finlay, chief operating officer at Kier, added: “Tracey is a vital part of Kier’s leadership team and has done incredible work in her time here, enriching the lives of our people and communities.
“Our commitment to sustainability remains paramount to Kier, and we’re delighted that Tracey will be taking overall responsibility for our strategy moving forward.”
