Do you want to learn how to embed purpose and impact in professional services?

🔥 Please join us for a chat around our virtual fireside to hear from three professional services leaders who have experience of integrating impact into the heart of business. 

This isn't another polished panel. It's three business leaders being brutally honest about what it really takes to grow commercial success and positive impact hand-in-hand within professional services. We will uncover the real stories and practical advice that you can take away and apply.

Keartland & Co’s founder, Hannah Keartland, will be speaking with:

  • Florence Brocklesby - Founder of Bellevue Law, a London-based boutique firm specialising in workplace law and commercial disputes. Her practice has an emphasis on discrimination and workplace culture and many of her clients are fellow lawyers and law firms. Florence led her firm’s certification as a B Corp and the launch of its Sustainable and Responsible Legal Advice Pledge, which details its approach to ‘advised impact’, including declining to work with clients in certain sectors and incorporating ESG impact considerations into its legal advice.
  • Harriet Hodgson-Grove - Audit Partner at UHY Hacker Young and leads sustainability and ESG initiatives across UHY and Affinia. She works with organisations to embed sustainability into business strategy, helping them manage risk, create long-term value and build resilience, while helping colleagues, clients and communities prosper.
  • Paul Bevington - Partner and General Counsel at commercial law firm EMW Law. Paul practised as a Corporate M&A lawyer for over 20 years, co-founded EMW's private equity practice, led its Corporate team and managed the firm’s London office. In his current role, he leads EMW’s responsible business programme, including B Corp certification. He's passionate about helping businesses work out what kind of business they want to be – and then actually be it.  

You'll leave this one hour conversation feeling inspired and knowing what steps you can take to scale up impact within your business 🚀

This conversation is timed to coincide with the launch of Keartland & Co's report on the same topic, following research involving over 30 different professional services firms. Everyone who signs up for the fireside chat will receive a copy of the report before it is publicly available.

The event will be recorded and a recording circulated to those who sign up but are unable to attend.
