Helping organisations make better long-term decisions.

Arthur is a sustainability and strategy professional with more than 10 years of international experience across environmental management, climate, conservation, infrastructure, public policy and sustainable development.

He began his academic journey with a degree in International Relations from the University of Coimbra, including an academic exchange at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom. He subsequently completed a Master’s degree in Environment and Development at the University of Leeds and, more recently, a Master’s degree in Digital Product Management at the University of Barcelona, combining his environmental expertise with strategy, technology and innovation.

Arthur began his professional career in the humanitarian sector, working for UNESCO in Paris and later spending several years as a Global Service Coordinator at the British Red Cross. This experience helped shape his international perspective on complex social, institutional and development challenges.

He subsequently moved into the environmental and sustainability sector, working as a Senior Consultant and Project Manager across Sustainability, as well as Policy, Strategy & Economics, with organisations including WSP in the UK and Spain. At Earthwatch Europe in Oxford, he worked on projects related to environmental conservation and agroforestry systems. More recently, he worked with VECTRA in Belgium, advising on international sustainability and business challenges.

Throughout his career, Arthur has led and managed projects across multiple areas of sustainability. His experience includes managing major energy frameworks for the European Commission, working with DG ENER and DG ENV; acting as a Sustainability Advisor, in partnership with KAUST, on one of the world's largest infrastructure projects led by the NEOM Authority in Saudi Arabia; serving as Framework Manager for GIZ (the German Development Cooperation) in Mexico on a programme supporting the development of sustainable urban transport systems; and working as a Country Coordinator for the Climate Finance Accelerator, in partnership with PwC, across South Africa and Vietnam.

These experiences have taken him across different geographies, sectors and challenges, including climate finance, energy, sustainable infrastructure, nature conservation, agroforestry, public policy, strategy and economic development.

This multidisciplinary career has given Arthur a systems-level and strategic perspective on sustainability, enabling him to connect environmental challenges with business strategy, public policy, investment, technology and implementation.

At Juerana Advisory, Arthur brings this international and multidisciplinary perspective to help organisations navigate complex sustainability challenges, translate ambition into practical action, and identify opportunities at the intersection of sustainability, strategy and impact.
