She is also a member of the Board of the Holcim Foundation for Sustainable Construction.
She was appointed the first Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) in October 2019, reflecting Holcim’s efforts to be the industry leader on decarbonization, circular economy, health and safety and corporate social responsibility. This role was extended to include Innovation in March 2021, placing sustainability at the core of Holcim’s innovation pipeline.

In September 2020 Holcim announced its net zero pledge, setting itself the most ambitious climate objectives in its industry, validated by Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Pursuing its rigorous science-based approach, Holcim is currently working with SBTi to set the industry’s very first benchmark for aligning climate goals to a 1.5°C future for cement. Upon completion of this work, Holcim will publish its very first climate transition report in 2022. Consistent with its governance, this report will be submitted to its shareholders for a non-binding vote in 2022.
Magali Anderson was previously Head of Health & Safety at Holcim (2016-19), driving a program to reduce the number of incidents both on-site and on-road.
She has an extensive international industry experience, acquired in a variety of general management, operational and functional roles at Schlumberger in countries such as Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, Angola, Romania and China.
Magali Anderson studied mechanical engineering at the Institut national des Sciences appliquées de Lyon (INSA Lyon), France (1984-89).
She is on the advisory boards of the World Green Building Council (WGBC), MIT Climate & Sustainability Consortium, and Business for Nature, as well as co-chair of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) Built Environment and the Global Cement & Concrete Association (GCCA) 2050 roadmap projects. She is also a mentor at the Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) in Paris, a nonprofit organization that delivers an objectives-based program for massively scalable, seed-stage, science- and technology-based companies.
She participated in the first Roundtable to prepare the topics of the Holcim Forum for Sustainable Construction in 2020.
