OAKLAND – Fashion resale specialist ThredUp has appointed Seth Levey as its first-ever head of public policy and sustainability.
Levey will lead government affairs and policy initiatives designed to encourage the widespread adoption of circular business models, and will be expected to simultaneously oversee the company’s broader ESG (environmental, social and governance) efforts.
“Oftentimes, public policy and sustainability are separate functions within an organisation. Blending them together into one role proves that ThredUp understands the greater impact resale can have on climate goals with government and societal support,” Levey said.
