Anita Neville, Chief Sustainability and Communications Officer, Golden-Agri Resources.

GAR Chairman and CEO Mr Franky O. Widjaja said, "GAR recognises the long-term value to the operational and commercial future of the business that comes from being a sustainable agribusiness player. We want our business to have a clear sense of purpose, to make positive contribution to the world while delivering value. Building on the progress made over recent years, and given the company's global growth, we are renewing our sustainability focus and effort to encompass our entire value chain, with a whole of business strategy." 

Current Managing Director of Sustainability and Strategic Stakeholder Engagement, Agus Purnomo, moves into a senior advisory role to the company, representing the company in key multi-stakeholder platforms and acting as a mentor for future talent within the business.

Reflecting on Mr Purnomo's contribution to the company over the past seven years, Mr Widjaja said, "Pak Pungki (Agus Purnomo) built the solid foundations of GAR's sustainability journey resulting in the company being considered as one of the leading responsible palm oil players globally. Under his leadership, we have made tremendous progress. I am delighted GAR will continue to benefit from his expertise and experience as a senior counsellor and mentor of the next generation of GAR talent."

Mr Widjaja added, "Anita's expertise and experience across public, private and civil society organisations, as well as her proven track record contributing to GAR's sustainability journey, makes her the ideal candidate to develop and lead the next phase of our journey."  

Anita Neville said, "I am honoured to be entrusted with this new role and to continue the work established by Pak Pungki. I think it speaks to GAR's strength in sustainability that we are able to make this transition from within the existing GAR team. I am excited to work even more closely with our sustainability staff, and to look at how GAR's sustainability journey can expand to incorporate our whole business." 

Ms Neville joined GAR six years ago, after two decades working in the environmental not-for-profit sector with various international NGOs and sustainability standards systems. She has worked in sustainability and communications with roles in non-governmental roles, including WWF-UK and Rainforest Alliance. She is based in Singapore, where she lives with her husband and two sons.  

All changes are effective 1 November 2021.
