“Alex started at STR Responsible Sourcing in 2008 doing research projects and auditing. This is the best introduction anyone can get to CSR. By working for hundreds of clients doing audits all over world, Alex very quickly gained significant experience in codes of conduct, labor laws, and differing CSR requirements by brand, association, or organization. As part of our R&D team Alex collaborated with sales, marketing and our client services team. He managed the quality and timely delivery of labor law updates and global research projects showing team leadership, cross-cultural communication skills, and subject matter expertise. Alex has experience with GSCP, OSHA, and DOL standards; internal and external training, RJC auditing, conflict mineral auditing, human rights and environmental risk assessment, and capacity building and management advisory services. His adaptability makes him a great part of the team in a changing work environment. I would hire him again.”
