Grandview Klein Names Chief Communications, Sustainability Officer
Industry veteran Brandee Dallow will take on the role early next year.
Grandview Klein Diamonds has named industry veteran Brandee Dallow its chief communications and sustainability officer.
New York—Grandview Klein Diamonds has appointed Brandee Dallow its chief communications and sustainability officer.
Previously, Dallow worked with Julius Klein, which Grandview was once a part of, for more than 11 years at the start of her career.
“It’s like returning to family,” she said. “We have always shared similar values: personally, that family is everything and professionally, that the customer/retailer is the most important part of a successful business. Partnerships, support, maintaining a high level of trust, and collaboration are all critical parts of our shared philosophy.”
After her tenure at Julius Klein, Dallow worked with Rio Tinto Diamonds’ North America diamonds sales and marketing office.
She founded Fine Girl Luxury Brand Building & Communications in 2017, where she held the role of regional membership, business development, and engagement lead for the Responsible Jewelry Council in North America.
In August 2021, she was named vice president of sustainability for luxury goods at SCS Global Services.
Dallow will join Grandview’s executive team on Jan. 3 and will be responsible for its marketing, communications, and public relations programs and partnership programs to support its clients.
The role also entails creating corporate sustainability programs.
“The company’s long-standing commitment to beneficiation, along with a meaningful and impactful vision related to environmental and social causes, made it an even easier decision for me to come back and provide impact in these critical areas,” said Dallow.
She will also be involved in partnerships, public events, initiatives launches, and other activities related to environmental, social and governmental sustainability.
Dallow will take part in beneficiation programs and activities in South Africa, Namibia and Botswana, where Grandview has manufacturing operations.
“Brandee’s vision, leadership, reputation and expertise throughout all aspects of our industry will uniquely position her to deliver solutions that drive both our company as well as our clients towards future success,” said Moshe Klein, president of Grandview Klein.
Dallow is the outgoing president of the Women’s Jewelry Association Foundation as well as a past president of WJA. She is also a board member of Ethical Metalsmiths, Jewelers for Children, the US Kimberley Process Authority, and Mercury Free Mining as well as a board advisor to the Black in Jewelry Coalition.
