Dexin Zhou

My 7 years of UK study experience from high school to university granted me international perspectives on business management, fostering critical thinking for comprehensive analysis, and building strong cross-cultural competence, vital for collaborating across global teams and regions. With fluent English and native Mandarin, I can engage internal and external stakeholders in complex scenarios.

With nearly 3 years in ESG compliance and reporting, I’ve honed skills in supply chain sustainability management (focusing on fashion and manufacturing sectors), including ESG due diligence, data analysis & reporting (ensuring valid and traceable sources for reporting), and stakeholder engagement. My experience with international consulting firms involved collaborating with global teams and suppliers, onsite and remotely, to drive supply chain performance, aligning with efforts to meet sustainability goals.

Fueled by a passion for sustainability, I’m eager to leverage my expertise to support initiatives like Tesco’s Planet Plan, driving positive impact across the full supply chain through rigorous compliance, data-driven insights, and collaborative stakeholder engagement.
