Meet Sabaah, Manager, Corporate Planning and Reporting at the Canada Infrastructure Bank. Sabaah supports the team in developing quarterly financial reports and annual reports, which evaluate how we track our corporate goals and relays our strategic vision. Her work requires a healthy mix of creativity, determination and leadership.
But there is a particular file which she is most passionate about and occupies most of Sabaah’s time – our first-ever Sustainability and Impact Update.
Working on this project combines her passion for sustainable finance and strategy. As a tool for accountability and transparency, the Sustainability and Impact Update will outline how we are investing in a greener and brighter future for Canadians. It will detail how we are maximizing our impact and positive outcomes and will strive even further to become a leader in sustainability.
