Arcadis announces three senior Sustainability hires

Arcadis has announced three senior Sustainability Advisory appointments across the globe, demonstrating the company’s prioritization of sustainable solutions for clients.

Jane Boyle has joined as Sustainability Advisory practice lead in the UK & Ireland, while Michelle Bachir has joined in the same role in North America. Kealy Herman joins as Global Technical Director for Net Zero Strategy, residing in the United States.

Arcadis has committed to accelerating the transition to net zero in a way that improves quality life for all, and recognizes that the biggest impact the company can make is supporting clients on their own net zero journeys. As part of this commitment, Arcadis is growing its Sustainability Advisory team at all levels, including onboarding accomplished senior leaders from consulting and industry who will drive the net zero transition at a time when it’s most needed.

She also founded a cross-functional working group to collaborate on innovative sustainable procurement mechanisms. Prior to Google, Kealy held senior positions at WSP, leading energy, carbon, and supply chain client projects for clients in technology, financial services, and manufacturing.

Jane joins to lead Arcadis’ UK & Ireland Sustainability Advisory practice with a remit to grow and develop the company’s offering across all UK market sectors and clients. Jane joins the UK practice at an exciting time, with the team having seen accelerated growth over the past two years as both the public and private sectors have shown increased interest in setting net zero targets, developing and implementing their net zero and broader sustainability strategies.

Michelle joins in a similar role in North America, leading Sustainability Advisory in the United States and Canada, guiding the existing North America Sustainability Advisory team as it responds to our client’s organizational-level sustainability needs focused on strategy, performance management, and reporting.
