Mia Fahey McCarthy- As Head of Sustainability for Ireland I work with a wider sustainability team including our Chief Sustainability Officer to ensure the implementation of SSE’s sustainability strategy across the company which includes our 2030 goals of cutting our carbon intensity, trebling renewable energy output, helping to accommodate 10 million electric vehicles, and championing a fair tax and a real living wage.

Although I’m based in Dublin, I frequently work around the country meeting various different stakeholders, a part of my job which I love. The fact that sustainability is now seen as an area of business and general society which is imperative makes doing what I do so much more satisfying as I know I am making an impact in affecting positive change.
