David Blackhurst-Evans

Global Travel Manager @LUSH

At Lush we are known for our soap, bath bombs and cosmetics range, which are all ethically sourced and created from our personal partnership with our ingredient growers, across the supply chain to the end product. This process is also carried over in other areas of the business, including travel. As a global business this involves a great deal of travel around the world, whilst minimising our negative global impact. We do this by having a \'No Fly\' rule for travel under 8 hours, prioritising the use of public transport and even owning our very own fully electric bus, nicknamed Electra. This has helped us to reduce our carbon footprint when travelling around our Head Office sites in Poole and has provided a Park & Ride service for staff to get to and from work between our units. My continued goals are to deliver exceptional customer service, use my leadership and management skills, built up over my career in hospitality and travel, to ensure the best results for our travellers and the business. Whilst looking at how we can be more environmentally friendly and travel smarter.
