The carbon transition has created a significant demand for a type of consultant that does not, in any practical sense, exist: someone who understands both the science of greenhouse gas accounting and the unglamorous reality of making a WordPress site work. Most organisations resolve this by hiring two people who do not talk to each other, or one person who is quietly baffled by half the job.
Adam Hardy is the other option. Twenty years in software engineering, followed by five years directing EcoCounts — a London-based citizen carbon reduction charity — have produced an unusual combination of capabilities. Carbon footprint methodology, or whatever the requirement you have, and the system to track it can be handled in the same conversation.
Measuring things most organisations would prefer not to know, then working out what to do about them.
The backbone of most charity communications. Surprisingly fragile. Easily fixed.
Site builds, redesigns, hosting migration, and the kind of security audit nobody does until something goes wrong.
Keeping digital projects from becoming somebody else's problem.
Many charities write compelling cases for support and then lose marks on the specification. This is fixable.
Roadmaps, workstream design, and the occasionally useful ability to see around corners.
Twenty years as a software engineer across finance and payments, including BP, UBS, and BNP Paribas. Five years as non-remunerated Director of EcoCounts, a community carbon footprint tracking charity operating across Camden, Islington, Hackney, and Haringey, with UCL academic partnerships.
If you have a project that needs both a spreadsheet and a conscience, get in touch.
