BANGKOK—Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas appointed Amber Marie Beard VP/Sustainability.
Beard has worked for Lend Lease, one of the world’s largest property developers. Relocating to Hong Kong, she joined China Resources, which is one of China’s largest government-owned organizations, working on the city’s first existing building sustainable redevelopment project that was targeting LEED Gold certification. A move to Singapore saw her as Head of Sustainability with Sustainability Ltd, an investment finance-company managing niche real estate opportunities in China, Japan and Australia.

With Pegasus Capital Partners, who acquired the company in 2012 and has over $2.2 billion in sustainably focused assets under management, Six Senses recognized the importance of prioritizing sustainability by inviting [Beard] to this position…”
