Interim Sustainability Controller to drive ESG and CSRD

After a needs analysis, we create a requirements profile that covers data platforms, reporting times, industry-specific KPIs, and culture. With our AI support, we assess CSRD merits, experience with double materiality analysis, and the ability to drive change in complex organizations. The result is a shortlist that, on the first review, matches over 90 percent of the desired skills and personal profile.

Besides the 80/20 split, you'll get a cost breakdown per milestone. Data mapping, gap analysis, workshops, and the final report are all specified so that the budget can be allocated in advance and tracked per sprint. The level of transparency is higher than with traditional setups.

The consultant sets up a train-the-trainer program where internal superusers validate data, run scenarios, and update ESG dashboards. You'll also get a ready-made roadmap for the next cycle, including indicators for gender equality, biodiversity, and Scope 3. This way, future requirements can be handled on time.

The work is divided into sprints for data mapping, materiality, control systems, and narrative. Responsibility matrices clarify who delivers what and when. Audit stress decreases, and the board sees real-time status.

Sustainability KPIs are linked to ERP and BI. Management can see how energy efficiency affects EBITDA and how better supplier screening lowers risk premiums in bank financing. Investments can be prioritized where the return is high.

Idea platforms and internal hackathons gather suggestions that turn into actions, like reducing material waste or launching social initiatives in the supply chain. When these results become visible, pride grows, staff turnover drops, and your employer brand gets a boost.

We set up API flows for energy and material data from production. This data is then matched with purchase orders and exported as validated datasets to reporting tools, all in just a few steps.

CSRD, the EU Taxonomy, and CSDDD all affect financing and supplier agreements. By having the full picture, your reports and strategy stay in sync, helping you avoid potential conflicts.

Facts are presented clearly and connected to business benefits. Open dialogue with management and operations helps bridge the gap between goals and execution, ensuring your organization treats sustainability as a core part of the business.
