🌟 𝗔 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗼𝗳: 𝗘𝘀𝗵𝗮 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹 🌟 Join us as we follow Esha Patil, our Sustainability Analyst, through her day at our Innovation Hub in Bari, Italy. From tackling greenhouse gas emissions to collaborating with teams across the organisation, Esha’s work is all about driving meaningful change and shaping a more sustainable future.   💼 What does a Sustainability Analyst do? “As a Sustainability Analyst, my role involves helping the company balance its growth with its environmental and social responsibilities. This includes calculating our greenhouse gas emissions, identifying social and ethical risks across our value chain, and collaborating with diverse teams to reduce these impacts. Another important aspect of my role is ensuring we’re ready to consistently report and track our progress in line with regulations like the CSRD.”   📅 When did you start working for Gunnebo, and why? “I joined Gunnebo Safe Storage in September 2023 as an Upskill Trainee. It was an excellent trainee programme that included a job, a buddy, the opportunity to work on a meaningful project in my field, and receiving top-quality education from ESCP. Additionally, I had the chance to learn from and interact with 14 other trainees from around the globe.   What drew me to this role was the chance to be part of the company’s sustainability journey almost from the ground up. It’s an exciting opportunity to learn and grow alongside the company while tackling the challenges and opportunities of adopting a holistic, sustainability-integrated approach to business.”   👥 What’s the best part of working at Gunnebo? “I love the dynamic nature of the work and collaborating with passionate colleagues from diverse backgrounds. There’s always something new to learn and do every day. I’m driven by the knowledge that my work contributes to meaningful change. Tackling global challenges like climate change and seeing how small actions—like reducing resource emissions or improving supply chain transparency—can add up to a bigger impact keeps me motivated.” #LifeAtGunnebo #Sustainability #GunneboSafeStorage

It’s more important than ever to save what remains of our precious natural world, so we’re delighted to join World Land Trust to support front-line conservation. As a fully signed-up Corporate Partner, we’re working with the charity to fight climate change and protect threatened wildlife and habitats. Our involvement with World Land Trust sees us donate to purchase land through its landmark Buy an Acre programme. The programme supports experienced and trusted local partners to safeguard ecologically important land at threat of deforestation, urbanisation and agriculture. Much of this land serves as the last remaining haven for countless rare and spectacular species. Acre by acre, Gunnebo Entrance Control is working with WLT to preserve and protect habitats in perpetuity. Currently, the Buy an Acre programme is actioning conservation in three important sites: Kenya’s Dakatcha Woodland, South Africa’s Renosterveld and Argentina’s Somuncurá Plateau. All three areas are at risk from human activities and home to rare and endangered species at risk of extinction. Take the owls in the picture as an example. They are the diminutive Sokoke Scops Owl. Just 17cm tall, these birds live in Kenya’s Dakatcha Woodland and are on the IUCN Red List as endangered. They are being protected through the habitat preservation achieved by the Buy an Acre programme. And with hundreds more birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, plants and more at risk across all three projects, the work is vital in preserving these precious parts of the natural world. As a Corporate Partner of World Land Trust, we’re saving at least 50 acres of land in these projects every year. As World Land Trust Patron, Sir David Attenborough, says ‘the money that is given to World Land Trust, in my estimation, has more effect on the wild world than almost anything I can think of’. We’ll be bringing more on the projects we’re involved in, and why not follow our lead and become involved with the World Land Trust? 📸 Chris Hodgson #nature #sustainability #conservation As a Certified Signatory of The Anti-Greenwash Charter, we’re committed to transparency, accountability, fairness and honesty in our sustainability communications.
