Since founding starting CLD Carbon in 2018, Craig has worked with companies, universities, and local authorities on carbon footprint calculation and internal carbon targets, using various reporting mechanisms with a focus on Net Zero and SBT planning.

Before founding CLD Carbon, Craig worked as a consultant and data modeller for Ricardo, with a focus on transport and energy policy, as well as alternative fuel technologies. During this time, Craig played a key role in the team assigned with the development of the annual conversion factors for BEIS, which are still used for companies’ yearly carbon reports across the world.

Whilst working for the Sustainable Scotland Network, Craig developed a wealth of knowledge in mandatory public-sector climate change reporting and Scottish energy policy. Here, he participated in the management of a network of over a 180 public bodies and ensured they were able to submit their reports on time by providing training sessions, and developing guidance and support tools. This work involved quality assuring and verification of all bodies’ emissions and project data in order to produce the annual analysis reports. Craig undertakes this meta analysis annually, producing valuable insights into public sector emissions across Scotland.

Craig is well-versed in Excel and VBA and has developed advanced Excel models for a range of organisations and industries, including the Carbon Footprint and Project Register Tool and the City of Edinburgh Carbon Scenario tool.
