Embedding Governance to Strengthen a Broadcaster’s Climate Transition Plan

Sustainability, Telco, Media & Technology

In 2024, a leading UK broadcaster launched its Climate Transition Plan, outlining a pathway to achieving Net Zero commitments by 2030. The plan highlighted key climate risks to the business and set ambitious sustainability objectives for 2025.

However, delivery activity was spread across multiple teams, creating challenges in governance, accountability, and alignment. Leadership recognised the need for a consolidated programme of work that would provide structure, visibility, and assurance to senior stakeholders.

What was the challenge?

The broadcaster faced a fragmented delivery model, where multiple siloed teams were responsible for different elements of the Climate Transition Plan without a unifying governance structure. This made it difficult to track progress against objectives, manage interdependencies, and identify risks.

Inconsistent accountability created uncertainty around delivery ownership, while the absence of a clear framework limited the ability to monitor benefits and demonstrate measurable progress to internal and external stakeholders.

With increasing scrutiny on ESG performance, the organisation needed a programme that could provide assurance, streamline delivery, and accelerate progress towards Net Zero.

How did we help?

Moorhouse partnered with the broadcaster to design and implement a consolidated Climate Transition Programme that strengthened delivery and governance. Our work included:

Creating a programme governance model with clear roles and responsibilities across business units and central services.
Defining strategic objectives for 2025, aligned to business priorities, supported by a detailed roadmap of milestones, risks, and dependencies.
Establishing project charters to ensure each workstream had defined resource requirements, delivery ownership, and measurable outcomes.
Embedding governance controls to enable progress tracking, risk management, and transparent reporting to executive stakeholders.


What was the impact?

Through our structured approach, the client gained assurance that climate risks were being effectively managed, and that delivery responsibility was transparent across the organisation.
