Our Leadership
Paul Dickinson
Founder
Alongside Beautiful Corporations, Paul co-founded and built CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) over the last 20 years. CDP supports companies and cities to disclose the environmental impact of major corporations. It aims to make environmental reporting and risk management a business norm, and drive disclosure, insight and action towards a sustainable economy. CDP is now acknowledged as one of the most significant global NGO’s working on climate change. It has successfully persuaded over 6000 of the worlds largest companies to measure - so they can manage - their impact on the planet.
Jamie Anley
Previous to Beautiful Corporations, Jamie founded the creative agency JAM (Design & Communications ltd) in 2002, an organisation famous for holding the cutting edge of delivering progressive and strategic creative leadership for global brands. JAM worked with a holistic approach to develop transformational projects for businesses the world over. With his 20-years of experience in the creative world and a highly developed network of internationally renowned change-makers, Jamie joined Beautiful Corporations in 2017.
Jamie is committed to helping businesses contribute to creating a happier and healthier world in beautiful and innovative ways.
Aline Costa
Aline has more than 15 years of experience working in brand strategy and communication, innovation, culture change, sustainability and purpose development. Working with global brands (i.e. Diageo, Unilever, United Nations Women and Adidas), medium and small size business and non-profits, Aline believes organisations have a responsibility to help build a better world for all.
Aline is on a mission to guide businesses towards strategies and cultures that seek to meaningfully solve problems and inspire people.
Maria O’Connor
Following an early career in academia that led to a PhD in Philosophy in her twenties, Maria changed course and entered the world of PR and MarComms with a passion for purpose-driven strategy. With experience working with both non-profits and global brands from hospitality to tech, Maria works exclusively on projects that pursue positive social impact goals. Maria is deeply passionate about the environment and sustainability, and yet a lot of her recent work has focussed on social mobility and diversity and inclusion in the workplace. This is, in her words, “a big piece of the puzzle” in solving the climate crisis as well as equalising society.
The Beautiful Community
Our Beautiful network is pretty impressive. From Nobel Peace Prize nominees to award-winning Entrepreneurs, Beautiful Corporations comprises a unique group of trusted allies, all with significant experience in diverse and complementary areas of transformation. These relationships enable our specialised approach, building world-class teams to work on break-through projects that aim to make the world that bit more beautiful.

The photography series below is a collaboration with Stuey Burnett, capturing some of the members of the Beautiful Community. Not your ordinary headshot, each picture aims to tell something of this person’s true nature and the change they are making in the world.
As the Beautiful Community grows, as will this collection.
