Our story
Positive Planet officially launched in the summer of 2021 after several months of researching and testing. The response to our proposition has been overwhelming and we are growing faster than we imagined. By 2023 we are already supporting more than 500 companies on their journey to net-zero. Our clients range from one man bands through to well known brands. The team is growing quickly and we already employ fifteen passionate and knowledgeable specialists who are actively helping our clients to reduce their climate impact. I am still genuinely excited every time we gain a new client and running a business which is making a tangible difference to such a critical issue is incredibly rewarding.
As the father of two young boys, I am hopeful that they will have a safe future on our amazing planet. I strongly believe that businesses both large and small have a critical role to play in delivering positive change and those that embrace sustainability will reap significant business benefits.

Co-founder, Positive Planet
We're committed to equal opportunities
Race Gender Equality
Never has there been a greater need for collective power. We are committed to giving equal chances to everyone regardless of gender or race. As the business grows we will strive to maintain a fair and representative balance of males and females and individuals from ethnic minorities as partners in the business.
Diversity
Everyone should feel comfortable in the workplace, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity and expression. We are committed to creating and maintaining an open and supportive working environment. This includes equal opportunity for advancement and development within the firm regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, and the equal provision of benefits to same and opposite sex partners or spouses.
Fairness
We operate the business as a cooperative partnership with all qualifying employees being awarded shareholding in the business. We do this because we believe that it makes us a better business, and because we feel that everyone should share in the rewards of the efforts.
Leading by example
We believe in setting a good example. We measure and minimised our own carbon emissions and we only partner with companies, who are committed to sustainable actions. We participate by committing to SME Climate Hub pledges. As a company committed to responsible practices, we are also proud to be a certified member of the Good Business Charter.
Climate Action Deadline
There is still time to avert climate disaster, but only if we all take responsible action. What happens between now and 2030 is our only opportunity to make the necessary changes to avoid raising global temperature above 1.5ºC; the point of no return that science tells us will make the worst climate impacts inevitable. You can make a difference today by taking positive action to reduce your company emissions. The deadline on the clock alerts us to the critical time window we have left to take the action to combat climate change.
Senior Carbon Accountant
A fantastic opportunity to develop your skills while helping some great brands reduce their carbon emissions.
