At Johnston Carmichael, our legacy is built on forward thinking. We’re always planning for the future, ensuring we leave the firm in a stronger place for the next generation of leaders. Sustainability is central to this ethos, shaping how we work and make decisions, and ESG is the framework that brings this sustainable ambition to life.
Our ESG strategy reflects our core values - doing the right thing, leading our future, staying relevant, and standing in other people’s shoes. We are committed to acting with integrity, responsibility, and transparency in everything we do.
We are actively reducing our environmental impact through our net zero action plan, making responsible supply chain decisions, and promoting sustainable practices. Our people and communities are central to our success, and we continue to drive meaningful social initiatives that foster inclusivity and positive change.
Strong governance underpins everything we do, ensuring transparency, accountability, and integrity. So, for us, sustainability isn’t just a responsibility, it’s how we create enduring impact.
In this section, you’ll find out more about our work in each of the core sustainability areas Environment, Social and Governance and you’ll meet some of our team who play a role in making all of this possible.

“In a world that is becoming increasingly interconnected, the impact of our actions extends far beyond the confines of our offices. At Johnston Carmichael, we have always prided ourselves on delivering exceptional professional services, but we recognise that excellence goes hand in hand with responsibility. It is not just about achieving financial success, it is the way we have achieved it. After almost 90 years in business, we have never been more acutely aware of the need to align our moral compass with our commercial purpose. People, Planet and Profit co-exist on equal footing at Johnston Carmichael.”
