Grosvenor has appointed Tor Burrows as group sustainability director to lead on the developer’s global sustainability strategy across all its international property, food and agtech and rural estates businesses.
Burrows, who will continue in her role as executive director of sustainability at Grosvenor Property UK, will also be tasked with overseeing the company’s recently announced global carbon commitment to reduce emissions in line with limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees.
Grosvenor has also promoted Ed Green, who previously co-led the delivery of the company’s alternative investment strategy within the sustainability team, to sustainability director of Grosvenor Property UK.
Mark Preston, executive trustee and chief executive of Grosvenor, said: “We’ve committed to pursuing carbon reduction targets, aligned with limiting global warming to 1.5°c. Having set the strategy and established such a successful sustainability programme within our UK property business, Tor’s expertise will be invaluable in ensuring that we continue to turn our sustainability ambitions into action and make progress across every element of our organisation globally.”
