About

We are a passionate, multi-disciplinary team of experts.

We offer a bespoke service and take a hands-on, collaborative approach. Working with us you’ll get deep knowledge, practical experience, and fresh thinking from a team of driven people who roll up their sleeves and get things done.

We’re also a Certified B Corp, which means we are part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact.

Our Founders and Story

Aideen O’Hora, Laura Heuston, and Karen Deignan established SustainabilityWorks in early 2019. We felt there was a need for a different kind of sustainability consultancy in Ireland – one that brings together financial, business, and communications know-how to create solutions that unlock opportunity and mobilise action.

SustainabilityWorks’ core services reflect our experience as Co-Founders, gained over 20+ years working at the forefront of sustainable business and sustainable finance in Ireland and internationally.

As a mission-driven consultancy, we are focused on impact. We work on projects and initiatives that we believe will move the needle and deliver meaningful change.

We love bringing people together, connecting the dots, and making sustainability work.
