Rachel Solomon Williams
Rachel is responsible for the overall management of the Aldersgate Group, including the development of its work programme, its relationships with key political and business stakeholders and its robust representation of member views to government ministers and parliamentarians.
During 2005 Rachel worked on Defra’s then-pioneering climate change business engagement programme, sparking her interest in the opportunity for businesses to deliver a positive impact, and in the vital importance of a regulatory level playing field.
Since then, Rachel has explored these issues through leadership roles within public, private and non-profit sectors. Highlights of her career have included leading policy development for the Climate Change Act, working on the UK’s first Renewable Energy Roadmap, developing the Tesco climate strategy, and establishing the UK’s sustainable aviation fuel policy framework.
