Home Vendor News Exciting Milestone for DEI at Lendlease This Week

Lendlease (ASX: LLC), a global real estate group, today announced the hiring of Venetta Amory as Vice President and Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) for its Americas’ Region. Ms. Amory will be based at Lendlease’s Americas headquarters in NYC and will report directly to Bruce Ambler, Director of Operations, Americas, effective today.

Ms. Amory has three decades of significant leadership experience advancing DEI goals across a variety of different industries. She brings a passion for DEI and a global mindset to this important work at Lendlease.

The role replaces the company’s previous DEI manager who built a strong DEI framework over the past eight years and departed the firm for another opportunity in January. The role has been elevated to a Director level to affirm the company’s strategic focus and to continuously improve its DEI efforts.

Lendlease firmly believes that diversity drives innovation and that a robust DEI strategy is key to realizing its vision of “creating the best places”. The company aims to foster a culture that embraces and respects difference and understands the importance of creating an environment where people can bring their “whole self” to a workplace where employees feel safe, valued and motivated.

“DEI has been part of Lendlease’s DNA since its founding in 1958,” said Lendlease Americas CEO Denis Hickey. “While we’ve made great strides, there is still much more to do. We are eager to drive our DEI efforts forward with Venetta as our lead.”

“Over the years, Lendlease has developed and implemented market-leading positions around DEI, and I was moved by their commitment to a journey of continual improvement. I am confident that my deep experience in DEI will be of great service to Lendlease as the company continues its work around this important business imperative,” said Amory. “That Lendlease has continued to prioritize DEI, which is further evidenced by the fact that this role is empowered to implement the necessary tools, resources and guidance across the Americas region in order to advance its efforts and generate a real impact.”

Amory was most recently Director of Diversity & Inclusion at the international law firm Kelley Drye & Warren where she provided leadership to the firm’s DEI committee and was responsible for developing, managing and implementing the firm’s DEI strategies, programs and initiatives.About Lendlease
