Detailed Review

Position Green is a Malmö-founded ESG software and advisory business, established in 2015 by Daniel Gaff, Björn Johansson and Rickard Häll, that combines CSRD and ESRS reporting, EU Taxonomy and CSDDD compliance, Scope 1-3 carbon accounting and supplier sustainability management inside a single platform. The company runs 11 offices across Europe and North America and states it supports more than 1,000 customers in over 30 countries, making it one of the larger dedicated ESG vendors headquartered in the EU.

Unlike most of the other tools in this category, Position Green is sold with consulting and advisory services built around the software rather than as a pure self-serve SaaS product, which suits an organisation that wants hands-on help interpreting ESRS materiality assessments rather than a tool it configures entirely alone. A majority stake was acquired by Norvestor, a Nordic private equity firm, in April 2022; the company remains headquartered and operated from Sweden.

In September 2025, Position Green Group acquired Greenomy, the Brussels-based EU Taxonomy specialist also reviewed in this category. The two remain separately built and sold products under one parent company, which is worth factoring in if vendor diversity across your compliance stack matters to you. Pricing is not published anywhere on Position Green's site; every plan is reached through a sales conversation.

What Position Green does well

  • Combines CSRD, ESRS, EU Taxonomy and CSDDD compliance with Scope 1-3 carbon accounting in one platform
  • Advisory and consulting services are bundled with the software rather than sold as a separate add-on
  • Large scale for an EU-native vendor: 1,000+ customers, 30+ countries, 11 offices
  • Now part of a group that also owns Greenomy, a Taxonomy specialist, giving a path to deeper Taxonomy tooling if needed

Where Position Green falls short

  • No published pricing anywhere on the site; every quote requires a sales conversation
  • No free tier or self-serve trial
  • The advisory-bundled model may cost more and move slower than a pure self-serve SaaS tool for a team that just wants software
  • Majority owned by a private equity firm (Norvestor) since 2022, a factor for buyers who prefer founder-controlled vendors

Standout feature. The bundled advisory model paired with unusually broad framework coverage (CSRD, ESRS, EU Taxonomy and CSDDD alongside carbon accounting) in one relationship, rather than stitching together several point tools.
