Sustainability report design Geelong.
ARD Studio designs sustainability, impact and community reports for Geelong councils, NFPs and universities. We turn your data into clear, accessible reports people actually read.
Australia’s mandatory climate reporting is being phased in.
The new sustainability reporting regime applies to entities that already prepare an annual financial report under Chapter 2M of the Corporations Act and meet specified size, emissions or asset thresholds. It does not apply to every company or charity.
Reports include climate-related governance, strategy, risk management, metrics and targets under AASB S2. We turn approved content into a clear, accessible report in Geelong, ready for review, assurance and publication.

Small proprietary companies without Chapter 2M reporting obligations and registered charities not required to prepare a Chapter 2M annual financial report are outside this regime. Australia has about 65,000 registered charities, but that is sector context, not the number covered by mandatory climate disclosure.

Accreditations and standards
Planning a sustainability report in Geelong? Here is what teams ask.
- What does a sustainability report designer in Geelong actually do?
We plan the structure, design the layout, build the charts and infographics, and produce the final accessible PDF and print files. You supply the approved content and data; we make it clear, consistent and easy to read.
- Do you work with voluntary sustainability and impact reports?
Yes. Most Geelong organisations we work with publish a voluntary sustainability, impact or community report. We also design mandatory AASB S2 climate content for entities that are covered.
- Which frameworks can the design follow?
GRI Standards, UN SDGs, TCFD, B Corp impact reporting, Climate Active and AASB S2. We build a content index into the layout so readers and reviewers find each disclosure quickly.
How we design sustainability reports for Geelong teams.
Structure before style
We map your content into a clear flow first: overview, highlights, goals, progress and index. Readers get to the point quickly.
Data that reads at a glance
Emissions, energy, waste, water and people metrics turned into consistent, honest charts that compare year on year.
Accessible and assurance-friendly
Tagged WCAG 2.1 AA PDF, clear labelling of assured figures and a content index reviewers can follow.

Hi, I'm Jen Clark. I design annual reports.
I lead every annual report project from brief to lodgement, including the data visualisation, accessible PDF, print production and ESG disclosure sections. Shaped, reviewed and signed off by me. A trusted extended team of writers, illustrators, data-viz specialists, accessible-PDF taggers and print producers joins for production under my direction. So you get specialist depth with a single point of contact.
I have 25 years experience as a graphic designer and creative director, establishing Jen Clark Design in 2011 after years across independent and in-house design teams. Today Annual Report Designers is trusted by Australian boards, NFPs and listed companies for annual, sustainability and impact reports.
