    Acre's Director of Natural Resources and Energy Transition, Dan Bond, has published a brilliant whitepaper developed in collaboration with senior leaders from across the mining and metals sector. We explore how regulations, market dynamics and emerging industry challenges are reshaping the talent landscape, and what organisations need to do to attract and retain the leaders who will drive the sector forward. Read here >> https://lnkd.in/ebqHztKB

    I spent much of 2025 and the first half of 2026 engaging with senior leaders across the mining and metals sector to better understand what was happening from a talent perspective as businesses adapted to the significant commercial and regulatory changes affecting the industry. The scale and pace of change throughout that period, and continuing today, has been staggering, with a profound impact on the people working across the sector. There is tremendous opportunity ahead, but it is people who will ultimately deliver it. I wanted to bring together some of my thoughts on the trends I am seeing and how I believe organisations can strengthen their approach to developing, retaining, and hiring the people responsible for managing mining's impacts on communities and the environment. Please click below to download a short white paper that distils these conversations alongside my own perspective. I hope it proves useful as organisations continue to merge, expand, and decentralise their operations. Many thanks to everyone who helped shape this piece, especially Rohitesh Dhawan Pernelle Nunez Dinah McLeod Benjamin Davies and Ben Chalmers and my wonderful colleagues Gloria Mirrione Hollie Hodgson and Chris Smith Please do share your thoughts in the comments, or drop me a line at dan.bond@acre.com if you'd like to discuss how we can support you or your teams growth.

    I am looking to connect with experienced Carbon Traders who brings a proven track record and an existing book of business, for a role with a leading trading house. Deep exposure to compliance markets, such as the EU ETS, California Cap-and-Trade, or similar regulated carbon frameworks, with a strong understanding of market dynamics and trading strategies, is preferred. If you or someone in your network fits this profile, I would welcome a confidential conversation.

    Grateful to Barnabas Reynolds and Camille Orme for hosting such a thoughtful discussion as part of the America250 milestone. It was a privilege to join the roundtable and exchange perspectives with such an engaged group of leaders.

    Delighted to chair and co-host the America 250 Leaders Summit at Sullivan & Cromwell LLP’s New York office alongside Camille Orme, Deputy Managing Partner of our Financial Services Group. We explored the structural drivers behind America’s extraordinary 250-year economic trajectory, its future momentum, and the critical framework sustaining this growth. Key themes included: - US Capital Markets: The unparalleled strength of the US capital markets as the ultimate platform for global investment and high-yield rewards. - Global Finance & Innovation: The nation's vital role as a primary exporter of finance, innovation, entrepreneurialism, and competition. - The Human Workforce: The essential role of people in today's shifting environment, and the pathways for talent to rise above automation. - Technological Frontiers: The creativity driving US tech and AI, its emerging societal impacts, and visions of space travel in light of NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's efforts - from the moon to Mars. On a personal note, I posited that this sustained success is deeply rooted in our "legal infrastructure" - specifically, the common law operating system (empirical-inductive and incrementalist) and sophisticated constitutional checks and balances. This unique legal and regulatory framework creates a stable yet dynamic environment where independent minds can safely collide, compete, and collaborate. It was a thesis that resonated strongly with the leaders in the room. A special thank you to our exceptional co-hosts and distinguished attendees for their invaluable insights: Catherine Clay, Chief Executive, S&P Dow Jones Indices Casey Swails, Deputy Administrator & Deputy Chief Operating Officer, @NASA David Schumer, Managing Partner, Calibre One Edward Knight, Executive Vice-Chairman, @NASDAQ Gregory Milne, Chief Executive, Clinton Global Initiative Gloria Mirrione, Managing Director, Global Financial Services, Acre Jeremy Fox-Geen, Chief Financial Officer, Circle Kristina Partsinevelos, Nasdaq Correspondent, CNBC Michael Chertoff, Executive Chairman, Chertoff Group & Former US Secretary of State for Homeland Security Matthew Ashworth, Director for Investment, North America, UK Department for Business and Trade Neil Brown, Managing Director, Global Institute, KKR Paul Gruenwald, Chief Economist, S&P Global Ratings Rebecca J. Anderson, Senior Partner, Global Institute, McKinsey & Company Rama Variankaval, Global Head of Corporate Advisory, J.P.

    We're so proud to have co-launched the Clean Energy Investment Prospectus for Wales alongside Net Zero Industry Wales yesterday at the Houses of Parliament. Wales attracted £4.6bn in inward investment last year. The prospectus sets out where the next wave goes: hydrogen, tidal, offshore wind, SMRs, AI growth zones. All of it underpinned by the Well-being of Future Generations Act, legislation that makes long-term thinking a legal requirement.   A big thank you to the 120+ senior leaders who attended and made the morning what it was. We'd also like to extend a very special thanks to our speakers: Jo Stevens MP, Secretary of State for Wales, for opening the event Michelle T. Davies (née Thomas), Chair of NZIW, for introducing the prospectus Georgina Sell, Director at Acre, for sharing how this network came together Ben Burggraaf, CEO of NZIW, for walking us through the projects seeking investment Andrew Hardcastle, Executive Director of Green GEN Cymru for setting out how Wales unlocks its clean energy potential Phelim Bolger, Executive Director of IFM Investors for bringing an international investor's perspective Stephen Kinnock MP, for hosting and supporting such an impactful initiative. If you’re interested in understanding more about the clean energy opportunity in Wales, please read our prospectus here: https://lnkd.in/eHN3MQJT

    This week, Acre's Singapore team and UN Global Compact Network Singapore brought together some of the sharpest minds in sustainability for an honest conversation about where our profession stands and where it's headed.    Thank you to our incredible panelists Franziska Zimmermann (Temasek), FOO Peng Er . (CapitaLand Investment) and Kamran Khan (Deutsche Bank) for sharing your perspectives with such candour and depth. And to UNGCNS and the team at Acre for presenting the findings from the 2025 Sustainability Census 2,000 voices across 76 countries.   Acre and UNGCNS shared an early look at the 2026 Sustainability Census findings - the voices of 2,300+ sustainability professionals across 76 countries. The data points to Asia Pacific as a standout region for sustainability growth. But the room told us something more: despite the headwinds, this community's commitment is real, and its talent is extraordinary.
