Driving Sustainability Solutions – Position Green’s ESG Journey Across Borders

Position Green began its journey in Malmö, Sweden, where it initially focused on providing businesses with the tools to measure and track their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance. As the demand for sustainability solutions grew, the company expanded its offerings to include advisory services, creating a comprehensive platform that helps businesses not only measure but also improve their ESG practices.

When it came to expanding internationally, the UK was a natural next step. Alice describes the company’s expansion as a strategic move driven by the recognition of significant potential in the UK market. “We already had a few UK-based clients and saw an opportunity to deepen our presence by establishing an office in London. This would allow us to better serve our existing clients and expand our market reach,”

Navigating Challenges to Establish a Thriving London Office

The decision to open a London office was fueled by the increasing number of UK clients and the recognition of untapped opportunities in the market. However, the expansion process wasn’t without its challenges. Alice highlights that the most significant hurdle was navigating local employment regulations, particularly around visas and employment contracts. “Goodwille played a crucial role in helping us overcome these obstacles, ensuring that our contracts were compliant with local laws and assisting with visa applications to retain key talent,” she says.

For Nordic businesses considering setting up in the UK, Alice offers practical advice: “Seek expert help where you lack knowledge. Initially, we tried to handle much of the research ourselves but quickly realized that professional guidance was essential. Engaging experts early on has been critical to our success.”

Since opening its London office, Position Green has continued to grow, attracting high-profile UK clients, including the entertainment project Abba Voyage. As the company strengthens its position in the UK, its mission remains focused on global expansion and scaling its impact to drive sustainable change worldwide.
