Humans of Generator: Hannah Yen - Toitū Envirocare

Generator Bowen, Wellington

I joined Toitū Envirocare as an Account Manager in September 2023.

My day-to-day involves working with clients to improve their environmental performance through carbon emission measurement and management.

Toitū Envirocare’s origins are in science; our future is in environmental regeneration and economic sustainability. We are here to lead and guide positive change with a system of robust environmental programmes that are internationally recognised. We help businesses be more sustainable by giving them the science-based tools, actions, and evidence they need to make real progress.

Toitū Envirocare is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Manaaki Whenua – Land Care Research, a Government-owned Crown Research Institute. Toitū Envirocare is also a Certified B Corporation.
