Industry veteran Brandee Dallow is now the vice president of sustainability for luxury goods at SCS Global Services.
Emeryville, Calif.—SCS Global Services has hired international branding and marketing expert Brandee Dallow as its vice president of sustainability for luxury goods.

SCS said Dallow is particularly skilled at managing complex projects with multiple stakeholders, adding these skills which will be vital in her new role at the company.
“We are very excited to bring Brandee on board,” said SCS founder and CEO Stanley Rhodes. “Her professionalism, strong marketing communications knowledge and skills, and deep commitment to environmental and social progress, including fulfillment of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, are fully aligned with the SCS’s corporate mission.”
