Ed Van Reenen

ESG Project Lead

 

I’ve worked for 15 years in the recycling and sustainability field, including NGO experience. Waste management operations in the healthcare NHS sector is a specialism of mine, as well as social value for businesses. I’ve worked on projects ranging from food waste reduction to beach cleaning. I now work on international development in South Africa.

James George

Head of Product, Innovation & Circularity

 

With over a decade of experience in the recycling and resources sector, I’ve led pioneering initiatives, including London’s first circular paper towel recycling service. I’m passionate about driving reuse and advancing circular economy solutions that create real impact for businesses and communities.

Kirsten Zoe Smith

Environmental / Net Zero Strategist

 

I head up Recorra’s Net Zero strategy, which involves managing our carbon reporting and finding decarbonisation solutions like our transition to HVO fuel. I also co-chair the Sustainable Urban Freight Association, a new trade body driving the transition to clean logistics across the UK.
