Sustainalytics European managing director leaves

Ronald Lubberts, managing director Europe at Sustainalytics, the environmental, social and governance (ESG) research house, has left the company. It is not known whether Lubberts, who was based in the company’s Amsterdam office, has taken a new post elsewhere.
Sustainalytics, a consortium of European ESG research houses backed by PGGM, the Dutch pension fund, Triodos Bank and Fortis MeesPierson, merged withCanada’s Jantzi Research in September 2009, and is branded as Jantzi Sustainalytics in North America. Diederik Timmer, managing director of Sustainalytics’ Amsterdam office and global director, client services, has taken on Lubbert’s European responsibilities.
Earlier this year, Responsible-Investor.com reported that Sustainalytics was hiring to boost client services and open new sales offices in the UK and France.
