Function Design & Structure

A high-performing Corporate Affairs, Government Affairs, Sustainability, ESG, Communications or Investor Relations function is a strategic asset. It shapes reputation, guides decisions and drives commercial results. Yet many teams are held back by inefficient structures, outdated reporting lines or misaligned capabilities.

Our data-driven benchmarking and deep functional expertise can redesign your function with precision.

We analyse how leading organisations in your industry or in aspirational industries structure teams, identify what enables impact and create models that strengthen accountability, clarity and performance.
The result is a function that’s both optimised and future-proofed.

How we shape your function

Aspirational benchmarking and functional insight

The strongest functions are rarely designed in isolation. We examine how leading organisations in your sector – and beyond it – structure their teams, identifying what truly drives influence and impact. Rigorous, ethical research and anonymised industry data provide a clear, evidence-based view of best-in-class capability mixes, reporting lines, governance frameworks and emerging trends.
Combined with deep sector expertise and forward-looking analysis, our insight helps you anticipate future priorities and position your function for sustained success – with confidence that your structure and capabilities remain competitive and fit for what lies ahead.

Reporting lines and team composition

Our analysis identifies structures that enhance influence and effectiveness. We examine how global, regional and market roles interact, defining what truly best practice looks like for you.
By clarifying decision-making authority and strategic focus, we identify team compositions and reporting lines that enhance agility, accountability and collaboration – so your teams operate with greater clarity, make faster decisions and exert stronger influence across the business.

Strategic decision-making support

We equip you with data-driven insights that strengthen internal alignment and guide future planning, including clear guidance on restructuring options, capability priorities and resource allocation.
Our scenario-based guidance helps test options, focus investment behind business goals and prepare your leadership team for what lies ahead.
You can move forward with confidence – making informed choices that reduce risk, sharpen the use of resources and ensure your function is positioned to deliver long-term value.
