Kensey Biggs has rejoined Teneo as managing director, focusing on dealing with ESG matters.
Most recently, she was senior VP, ESG and corporate social responsibility at Truist, a Top Ten bank that was formed with the merger of SunTrust and BB&T.
She helped build the merged bank’s ESG operation and worked on its long-term climate strategy and pathway to net-zero emissions.
Biggs moved to Truist after a four-year stint at Abernathy MacGregor, where she built its ESG offering for clients, groups, led IR programs, managed earnings calls and handled crisis situations.
She signed on at Teneo as its 13th employee in 2011 after a six-year run in Goldman Sachs’ private wealth management group.
