As the Director of ESG for Arsenal Football Club, Hannah leads the club’s environmental sustainability programme, driving initiatives that reduce emissions and promote sustainable practices. Under her leadership, Arsenal became the first football club in the world to have a net-zero target validated by the Science Based Targets initiative, ensuring its climate commitments align with the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Since announcing this target, Hannah has built impactful projects, including upgrading over 9,000 lightbulbs at Emirates Stadium to LED and decarbonising the club’s main office. She has also led efforts to embed sustainability within the club’s culture, implementing training and policies for staff while engaging young people through Academy and Community programmes. Alongside the partnerships team, Hannah received the award for Sustainability Campaign of the Year at last season’s Sport Positive Awards for a club initiative that inspired supporters worldwide to score over 55,000 ‘green goals’ for the environment, reinforcing Arsenal’s commitment to leading sustainable change in football.
