Etcho co-founders Liall and Charlie, have been friends for many years and will become brothers-in-law next year! They have combined their passion for sustainable finance, corporate social responsibility and using money as a force for good to create Etcho. Here’s a little bit more about them and our head of UX, Will.
Liall has a background within sustainable finance, having worked at Standard & Poors within their ESG Market Intelligence team. However, outside of work Liall's passions lie within nature. Liall is a keen outdoorsman, kayaking the river Avon, sailing the Dorset coast or fishing in the New Forest. Liall also studied Climate Change, Finance and Management at Imperial College London before starting his career in sustainable finance.
Charlie's background is from within the not-for-profit sector, and has spent time working in Ghana, becoming a Dream Big Ghana Foundation trustee. Interestingly, this is where our name Etcho comes from, as you can see in our recent update. Most recently, Charlie worked at UN agency, Unicef, working with the likes of London Stock Exchange Group on strategies to tackle the Sustainable Development Goals. He has also helped the School for Social Entrepreneurs as a mentor. Charlie has recently discovered the joys of open water swimming and regrettably spends a lot of his spare time watching Newcastle United.
Will works part-time on Etcho. Currently living in Berlin, where he is working within the Publicis Groupe. Will has applied service design, UX and strategic approaches for many global brands, including Lloyds banking group, BNP Paribas and most recently Mercedes-Benz. Will is a thought leader in the 'conscious design' space, an area in which Etcho aims to pride itself. Will has led Conscious Design talks and workshops at SXSW, IXDS, and Google. Will is passionate about design research and is looking forward to implementing strategies that help Etcho design consciously and effectively. Outside of work, Will - being an avid Skateboarder - loves the outdoors and spending time with his wife and daughter walking the canals and chilling in the parks.
