CRU is pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Jeavons as head of its sustainability division – CRU Sustainability. Mark, who is based out of London, UK, will have a global remit, using his wealth of expertise to support new and existing customers in their journey to a greener future with the development of sustainability strategies across a multitude of industries.  

Mark has over 15 years’ experience in a variety of leadership roles spanning ESG and investment. Most recently, as Head of Climate Change Insights at Aon (a leading multinational financial services firm) he developed a market-leading climate change scenarios toolkit and led ESG investment research, driving growth in the responsible investment business globally.

In his new role, Mark will spearhead CRU Sustainability’s growth, working closely with a team of highly regarded CRU analysts, pricing experts and consultants, to provide guidance on macro challenges such as carbon emission reductions and circular economy, alongside commodity-specific demand trends and regulations. This will provide the much-needed holistic picture of market impact drivers and insights to accelerate customers’ roadmap to net zero – arguably the most pressing issue faced by many business decision-makers today.
