Meet the team

Works in close collaboration with stakeholders across the School, and is responsible for raising the profile of sustainability at LSE, overseeing the delivery of the Sustainability Strategic Plan (SSP), and working to ensure that the School sets itself suitably ambitious targets.

I work with the eight LSE-managed halls to embed sustainability within them. I manage the Sustainabe Halls Campaign in conjuction with SOS-UK which is a friendly inter-hall competiotion to save Energy, Waste and Water. 

I manage the British Heart Foundation (BHF) end of year ‘Relove’ collections, totalling around 8 tonnes of items annually and raising vital BHF research and support funds for cardiovascular disease.

I get to work on a really diverse range of projects within sustainability, and one of my favourite aspects has to be biodiversity in the form of the LSE Bees!

I oversee the carbon management for LSE from delivering energy efficiency projects to procuring energy contracts and ensuring compliance with relevant regulations.

I am also in charge of water management and water contracts for the School.

I specialise in waste management, finance administration, and sustainability operations. My role includes maintaining detailed waste and energy data, ensuring compliance with waste documentation, managing supplier invoicing, and providing energy usage dashboards. I also organise and manage environmental and sustainability meetings, handle travel arrangements and oversee general administrative tasks to support environmental initiatives by streamlining processes, enhancing data accuracy, and facilitating collaboration across teams.

Primarily coordinates multi-channel and stakeholder sustainability communications, manages the sustainability engagement programme at LSE (Green Impact), and organises sustainability-themed events/projects. All this work feeds into the themes of the Sustainability Strategic Plan, particularly 'Collaboration' and 'Our School'.

In her role, Thea works to improve the environmental performance of LSE. She manages the environmental and energy management systems (ISO14001 and ISO50001) and the waste contract. She is often involved in ad-hoc projects the sustainability team work on, from events to guidance documents, as it is required as part of working towards the Sustainability Strategic Plan.

Dene is part of the Operations and Maintenance team and supports the School’s sustainability initiatives, with a key focus on energy and carbon reductions including driving energy efficiency across our campus and residences buildings.
