Future Connect: Networking Event – May

Alexandra combines her passion for the environment with her combined honours degree in business management and geography, focusing on environmental sustainability for businesses. Her journey began with an internship at Paragon Impact, leading to a pivotal thesis on sustainable consumption behaviour influenced by the Sustainable Development Goals. After her degree, she did sustainable marketing in a B2C climate tech firm, and recently pivoted to a B2B company, where she now excels as a sustainability consultant at True in Jersey. Beyond work, Alexandra dedicates her time to volunteering for Ocean Culture Life charity, co-founds the Future Sustainable Finance Leaders group, and supports the Jersey Association for Sustainability Professionals (JASP) in organising the occasional event.

Indi started his career in Jersey’s trust sector, focused on private clients, before a few years spent travelling and working seasonal jobs. He is passionate about nature and recently finished his BSc in Environmental Science through the Open University. The combination of local finance industry and science-based sustainability knowledge together with diverse work experience set him up as an ideal hire for the rapidly evolving local sustainability consulting space.
