The Financial Director, Richard Maltby was on the Council of Management for the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors and has been commended for his valuable work in Training and Education across the profession. As the then Vice President of The Survey Association he was instrumental in developing a structured training course for technician level surveying which has now progressed to include Degree apprenticeships thereby helping to resolve one of the greatest weaknesses in the industry – lack of skilled staff.

Climate Neutral means that we have calculated our greenhouse gas emissions, we are reducing them, and are offsetting unavoidable emissions through carbon offset projects. Offsetting is a vital step in climate action. Without it, the 1.5-degree target of the Paris Convention would not be achievable – we do not currently have the necessary technologies to reduce all emissions drastically enough to meet this target. Investing in carbon offset projects also promotes sustainable development in the Southern hemisphere, so that economic progress is not dictated by investment in and use of fossil fuels. Maltby Surveys are collaborating with Climate Partner to reduce our carbon footprint and help protect our environment.
