Lisa is experienced in managing the environmental aspects of major infrastructure developments across the world and joins from global professional services company Dar Group.
She will be providing Biodiversity Net Gain consultancy and expert advice on enhancing natural capital for developers, investors and landowners across the UK.
Bidwells is a leading property consultancy at the forefront of the emerging field of natural capital.
As the world tackles climate challenge, the principles of sustainability and natural capital are transforming the face of investment, government policy, and how land is managed and developed.
Bidwells manages more than one million acres of the English and Scottish countryside meaning it is uniquely positioned to bring new, large-scale opportunities to landowners and investors, as well as advise on sustainable development.
Roland Bull, Head of Rural Investment at Bidwells said: “Lisa has advised on environmental aspects of major infrastructure delivery across the Middle East and Africa, as well as working on the practical delivery of habitat regeneration in the UK and Australia so will provide expert international knowledge and insight into our work across the Oxford-Cambridge Arc, an area earmarked for major economic growth in the next decade.
“There are ambitious biodiversity net gain targets set by local and national government for the region and Lisa is well placed to advise on how to best deliver significant biodiversity improvements in a region of the UK where there is a huge opportunity to deliver ecological enhancement through development on a large scale.”
