“I’m grateful to be part of a team committed to consistent execution of Diageo’s ESG values and Society 2030 across all our touch points. When we talk about Grain to Glass, this project allows us the opportunity to show that we really mean it, and that is ingrained in every step of our product life-cycle.
I’ve really enjoyed that Diageo has enabled myself and colleagues to take a bold approach creating new Sustainability Guidelines in Marketing. The opportunity to develop Diageo’s global guidelines means the scope and impact of this workstream will play a significant role in how Diageo will deliver our Society 2030 ambition.
From a personal experience, I’m passionate about the opportunity to be working in an environment that creates sustainable marketing and empowers me to set bold targets. I truly believe in what we are doing and I’m grateful to Diageo and to my colleagues who have supported and enabled me to help shape the exciting direction Diageo will take.”
“I’ve always believed that there is a noble cause in working for a company like Diageo, where you have inherent trust that it is doing the right things. From a motivational perspective, leading and contributing to driving sustainability across Experiential activations confirms that we are doing what we say in practice, are transforming the way we operate and are committed to making a difference and achieving our 2030 sustainability targets”
“Marketers have applied creativity and precision for decades, creating appealing brands and promoting desirable products, while shaping people’s cultural views and consumption habits. It’s now the time for Marketers to devote these powerful skills to creating a better more sustainable world. Sustainability is “meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs’ (UN, 1987). At Diageo we build the best brands in the world, having in mind the balance between short term gains and long term ambitions. We’re creating new principles and practices to transform our brands into forces for good, where the successes of the present are also ensuring that future generations will thrive.”
“Our prioritisation and commitment to driving the Spirit Of Progress 2030 sustainability agenda was a large part of why I applied for the Supply Graduate Program in 2019.
Sustainability was not only my favourite module during University but one in which I believed was important to practice during everyday life. Diageo afforded me the opportunity to align my career choice with my personal values.
Working for an organisation that prioritises both sustainability and employee development is personally fulfilling and professionally rewarding, whilst contributing to a more environmentally responsible and socially conscious world. It aligns personal and organisational goals, benefiting the individual, the company, and society as a whole.”
“Our indirect carbon emissions (scope 3 – Including the packaging & raw materials we use to make our iconic blends) are one of the most material parts of our environmental sustainability ambition. Diageo’s Scope 3 ambitions present a unique opportunity for Diageo Marketers to make discernible impact. Marketers, especially brand owners, play a key role in delivering our Scope 3 ambition. Within Diageo, Brand owners are actively driving change by assessing their brand’s contribution to scope 3 & taking bold action on the packaging footprint to manage it”
