We spoke to Andy Griffiths , Head of Sustainable Procurement at Diageo , and who has led on the IEMA partnership , about this collaboration which has received brilliant feedback from his colleagues .
How Diageo is training staff to have a focus on sustainability In 2023 , the company began a first of its kind partnership with IEMA , and it looked to reshape the way people working in its procurement and supply chain departments have a keen focus on sustainability .
Across two years of training and development opportunities , employees were given the opportunity to put laser focus on environmental management and sustainability , as they worked towards the subsequent professional qualification from IEMA .
Once certified , colleagues were able to access the wide range of events , resources and networking opportunities IEMA facilitates with other sustainability professionals .
