Former PIMCO ESG Leader will spearhead swift expansion of the company’s carbon markets strategy for consumers and enterprises

Aspiration, a global leader in Sustainability as a Service solutions for consumers and companies, today announced the appointment of Olivia Albrecht as the company’s new Chief Sustainability Officer. Albrecht will head the Sustainability group, including the carbon markets desk, to design and execute innovative action programs and strategies for businesses and people.

“Olivia is joining Aspiration at a pivotal moment in time when the topic of climate change has become central to consumers and businesses,” said Andrei Cherny, CEO and co-founder of Aspiration. “She is a powerhouse in sustainable finance and will make a strong addition to our leadership bench as we focus on scaling our sustainability team during this hyper-growth stage.”

At PIMCO, she was the Head of ESG Business Strategy helping to lead a diverse and integrated set of over 50 investment professionals.

“The carbon credit markets are poised to play an increasingly important role in corporate strategy, capital allocation and consumer engagement as the world presses forward into climate action,” said Albrecht. “Aspiration is uniquely positioned to help steer capital toward high quality, nature-based projects to generate environmental, societal and economic returns for enterprises and people.”

Aspiration’s Sustainability as a Service solutions empowers consumers and businesses into climate action through the carbon credit market in ways that are automated, simple, and enormously powerful.
