Suir Engineering has appointed Ellie Walshe as its new Head of Sustainability, strengthening its commitment to material environmental and social practices.
 

 A former Associate Director and Senior Sustainability Manager at Davy Horizons, the environmental, social and governance (ESG) and Sustainability advisory team within Davy Group, Ellie will lead the development and implementation of Suir Engineering’s sustainability strategy. Her role will focus on mitigating risks and promoting opportunities across all material ESG impacts. Additionally, Ellie will ensure compliance with non-financial reporting requirements, such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the EU Taxonomy.

In her new role, Ellie will ensure that ESG considerations remain central to Suir Engineering’s business strategy. Her expertise and leadership will be crucial in aligning the company’s operations with the evolving sustainability landscape as Suir Engineering continues to expand into international markets.

 
John Kelly, CEO at Suir Engineering said: “We have made significant strides in our sustainability journey, but we recognise the need to do even more, hence the creation of this new senior role. Ellie’s appointment is a tangible demonstration of our commitment to not only operating more sustainably but to making a real difference in our governance structure. Her expertise in social and environmental management aligns to our objectives and vision for the business and this new role will be central in redefining and driving Suir Engineering’s long-term strategy for Ireland and across Europe.”
 

Ellie began her sustainability career in 2012 as an Environmental Consultant at Worley Parsons. She then advanced to Environmental Advisor at Costain Group PLC, followed by Senior Sustainability Manager at Mace. After that she was appointed Environmental Manager at mac-group, then Senior Sustainability Manager at Davy Financial Services, before being promoted to Associate Director.

Marking 40 years in business this year, Suir Engineering is headquartered in Waterford with offices in Dublin, the UK, Stockholm, Copenhagen and Frankfurt. The company is one of Europe’s leading providers of mechanical, electrical and instrumentation engineering services, operating in four core sectors: pharma, energy & utilities, food & beverage and data centres.
