ESG Strategy has been recognized as a leading sustainability consulting firm in Australia, celebrating its innovative and impactful approach to helping businesses integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into their operations. Through its groundbreaking Virtual Chief Sustainability Officer (vCSO) model, ESG Strategy is transforming how businesses, regardless of their size, approach sustainability by providing affordable, accessible solutions that lead to real, measurable change.
Founded by Lee Stewart, ESG Strategy has redefined the way businesses integrate sustainability into their operations. Unlike traditional consulting firms that offer high-cost, often inaccessible advice, ESG Strategy delivers top-tier sustainability expertise at a fraction of the cost. This makes it possible for companies of all sizes—from startups to large enterprises—to build sustainability leadership and competitive advantage in a world where sustainability is no longer optional but a necessity.

The vCSO model, central to ESG Strategy’s success, has revolutionized the sustainability consulting space. By offering flexible, virtual access to world-class sustainability strategy, ESG Strategy allows companies to embed sustainability practices without the need for a full-time executive or the high price tag associated with traditional consultancy models. This approach has been especially impactful for growing businesses and mid-sized firms, who can now access high-level strategic advice previously reserved for Fortune 500 companies.
Through their innovative approach, ESG Strategy is not only helping businesses comply with ESG regulations but also empowering a new generation of sustainability leaders who are transforming industries and shaping the future of business. Their mission is to create over 1,000 sustainability leaders by 2028, ensuring that sustainability is embedded in the fabric of every business.
This recognition as a leader in sustainability consulting is a testament to ESG Strategy's commitment to making sustainability accessible, actionable, and transformational for businesses of all sizes.
