Join our session on embedding sustainability in the procurement function

This in-person session aims to equip procurement professionals with the knowledge and understanding to contribute to their organisation’s sustainability goals in their day-to-day work. It explores the intersection of procurement and sustainability functions, what procurement teams need to know to support integration across the business, and how both functions can collaborate to drive shared objectives.

Company presentations will be provided by Fugro.
