Naomi, Head of Property Design, talks about her role in reducing the Group's carbon footprint.


"I’ve led our property design team for almost a year now, and it’s a job I really love.I get a lot of fulfilment from our purpose to reduce the carbon footprint of our buildings and support our colleagues to make sustainable changes.
