Former Interpath Advisory chair takes helm at sustainability consultancy after chief executive exit

Tamara Box, the former chair of Interpath Advisory, will assume the role of chair at sustainability consultancy Anthesis Group, as its CEO Derek Kemp resigns after less than two years at the firm. Box, previously the managing partner for Europe and the Middle East at law firm Reed Smith, joins Anthesis Group's board of directors this week.

The appointment coincides with the announcement of CEO Matthew Bell's departure, with a global search underway for his successor. Until a new CEO is appointed, Box, along with CFO Ray Leclercq and CPO Rebecca Pashley-Robinson, will lead the firm.

Anthesis Group assists organizations in making their operations more sustainable, focusing on net zero planning, ESG reporting, responsible sourcing, and supply chain changes. The consultancy works with sectors such as retail, technology, food and beverage, and finance, serving clients like Tesco, L'Oréal, Microsoft, Amazon, and PayPal.

Box emphasized her goal as chair is to build upon Anthesis Group's strong foundation, sharpen its strategic focus, and accelerate growth, harnessing exceptional expertise, commercial discipline, and a commitment to delivering measurable value for clients.

Anthesis Group aims to become the world's leading specialist partner for sustainable business performance. Interpath Advisory's CEO, Mark Raddan, faced a £8,000 fine in August for allegedly breaching confidentiality standards, following an investigation by the UK's accounting body, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales (ICAEW).
