NTAbout Nadia
Freelance ESG & Sustainability Consultant | Strategy · Reporting · Integration · Training
I'm a sustainability and ESG specialist with a strong track record implementing ESG strategy inside a high-growth, PE-backed scale-up. I worked cross-functionally across legal, operations, M&A, and investor relations, turning ESG from a regulatory obligation into a core value driver.
I now support clients across industries in developing and operationalizing ESG strategies, aligning with reporting requirements like SFDR, CSRD and supply chain due diligence requirements. My services include ESG due diligence, regulatory-ready reporting, carbon footprinting and responsible sourcing.
A key focus is also ESG training and awareness-building within organizations, especially in post-merger or high-growth contexts (to ensure internal teams are aligned and empowered).
Whether you're a VC/PE firm, a growing portfolio company, or a corporate building out ESG capabilities, I bring hands-on expertise, pragmatic thinking and a sharp understanding of investor and different stakeholder expectations.
