We activate the law for a sustainable future

Puxley ESG is a boutique legal ESG leadership consultancy providing expert advice on managing legal ESG risks and aligning business success with a sustainable future.

In the face of a rapidly changing global landscape, we are a trusted legal partner for fast-growing businesses looking to navigate the complexity of ESG-related laws, regulations, and stakeholder expectations, to enhance sustainability performance and create meaningful, long-term business value.

Services

We are experts at helping our clients navigate a rapidly evolving ESG landscape.

We regularly advise on cross-cutting areas of law that govern all dimensions of business sustainability including fiduciary duties, supply chains, disclosures and responsible investing, so that you can think holistically about the relevance of ESG to your business. This differs from traditional advice which does not consider the critical interconnections between ESG that may have long term impacts on business success.

  • ESG Advisory

    An organisation’s ability to succeed or fail is defined by trust in their mission and leadership. We can help you build trust around ESG, sustainability and impact performance through international best practice corporate governance frameworks and responsible investment.

  • ESG Leadership Workshops

    We are living in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world. We help you think about the relevance of ESG to your business, and your fiduciary duties, to champion sustainability performance as a transformative force for success.

  • Contract Innovation for sustainability

    There is an urgent global imperative for contracts to better align with a Just Transition. We employ innovative thinking to integrate sustainability targets and just transition principles into contracts, to accelerate action towards a more sustainable future.

A note from our founder

Victoria Puxley, Founder

“I want to see the legal industry step up and start to drive the change that is so desperately needed to protect future generations”

As lawyers, contracts are our bread and butter. We use them every day to enshrine profit margins, protect rights, allocate responsibilities and set up value. However, many of the contracts we use today are no longer fit for purpose. At best, they fail to protect business against the evolving ESG risk landscape and, at worst, they act as a barrier to sustainability strategies and targets, resulting in legal and reputational risk.

I founded Puxley ESG to do one thing: activate the law for a sustainable future. The business is borne out of a critical need to offer integrated legal advisory and leadership services that enable governments, businesses and individuals to understand their externalities, so that they can thrive in the long term. As international laws, regulations and standards continue to embed environmental and social value into their frameworks, it is critical that business thinks strategically and proactively about embedding ESG into governance and strategy.

We can help you do this using systems thinking to inform business model and contract innovation, so that your business has legal and governance architecture that is fit for purpose in the 21st century.
