Will co-leads the climate change theme at EOS, the stewardship arm of Federated Hermes Limited, where his coverage includes companies in Europe and Australia, primarily financial services, energy, chemicals, and materials.

Before that, Will held a number of roles across the UK climate policy space, including as a parliamentary researcher for Rt. Hon.
