We do this by combining science, strategy and storytelling in a way that gives our clients the confidence to take ambitious action and do well by doing good.
Why Edge?
You may think all sustainability consultancies are the same. We'd like to think otherwise. Here are a few of the things that set us apart…
Unmatched breadth and depth: Our team includes specialists from a wide range of disciplines, with project experience that spans many sectors. As a result, we can help you no matter where you are on your sustainability journey.
What you see is what you get: The people whose photos you see in our proposals are the same ones that will work on your project. If we've promised you our top consultants, that's who you'll get.
We're thought leaders: We want to change the world. That means we continuously invest in research and innovation, and are regularly at the forefront of industry initiatives. We then bring that expertise back into projects to benefit you.
We practice what we preach: It's no good telling you how you can do better if we're not doing it ourselves. That's why we're a BCorp, have a verified Science Based Target, and are striving to become a zero-waste business.
International capability, local knowledge: Over the years, we've worked with leading businesses from all over the world. We know what global best practice looks like, but we also understand the importance of your specific, local context.
Our values
Everything we do has to align with our values, which are central to who we are, and how we want to work….
Client-focused: Our impact and purpose is delivered through our clients' success.
Passionate and innovative: We're personally committed to creating change, so we're always looking to push boundaries.
Collaborative and solutions-oriented: The best outcomes come when we combine perspectives, experiences and expertise.
Courageous and humble: We act boldly and speak our minds, but leave our egos at the door.
Edge's recruitment process:

Employees can work with their line manager to work towards promotion. The progression of an employee at Edge is as fast or as slow as the employee drives this interest. The framework for all staff to be promoted is there as is the governance and investment in each employee by line managers.
