Dr. Saskia Juretzek

I am a senior transformation and sustainability executive with deep expertise in sustainability strategy, governance, and value creation. I help companies and investors translate regulatory and stakeholder expectations into actionable levers that strengthen performance and long term competitiveness.
In leadership roles at Tengelmann Group, Allianz SE, Telefónica Deutschland, and Accenture, I have built and executed sustainability and governance strategies, led human rights and sustainability reporting programs, and aligned diverse stakeholders around clear strategic priorities. As co founder and advisor of Futurewoman, I advance female leadership in transformation and sustainability and contribute as a speaker and author to thought leadership on future ready organizations and sustainable careers. I am driven by the conviction that sustainability is a strategic lever for value creation—not merely compliance—and that strong governance and transformation leadership are essential to unlocking this potential.
I have a broad industry experience across retail, textile, telecommunications, insurance, financial services, automotive, real estate, venture capital and consulting

Companies that benefit from my experience include those that are:
• Purpose driven and committed to creating positive impact
• Integrating sustainability strategically to strengthen future readiness
• Looking to de risk their supply chains, for example through transparency, due diligence, and resilient sourcing strategies
• Entering the German market, seeking market insights and guidance on sustainability/ESG regulations and standards
• Undergoing a transformation process, for example to become more sustainable or resilient
• Founded by women, looking for support in positioning and strategic visibility
• Aiming to foster diversity and build more inclusive organizational cultures
