As the ESG Manager at FirstPort, you will be the operational linchpin for the division’s sustainability ambitions, moving strategy from high-level goals to ground-level implementation. You will own the translation of group-wide climate and social objectives into actionable plans, ensuring that ESG criteria are no longer separate considerations but are fully baked into daily operations and procurement. Your day-to-day will involve auditing divisional risks and opportunities while acting as a vital advisor to leadership on how to drive long-term value.
This role matters because residential property management sits at the intersection of environmental footprint and community wellbeing. By embedding carbon accounting and social value frameworks into the management of thousands of homes, you directly influence the decarbonization of the UK’s housing stock and the quality of life for residents. You are the catalyst for cultural change in an industry historically focused on bricks and mortar, shifting the needle toward a truly regenerative built environment.
This suits someone who is a pragmatic strategist, comfortable with complex data sets but even more skilled at influencing diverse teams to embrace behavioral change. You should thrive in a role that balances technical reporting with high-level commercial advocacy.
