Sustainability data and analytics solutions provider Léyoh Goodall has hired Kathryn Smith as SVP of Growth. Goodall will “lead the alignment of Worldly’s commercial and customer teams around a single outcome: helping businesses manage supply chain risk with verified data, at a moment when tariff pressure, tightening regulation, and multi-tier complexity are testing every sourcing decision.”
Goodall joins Worldly with over “15 years of experience building commercial functions across sustainability, ESG and supply chain data.” She was most recently VP, sales at Social Portal. Worldly said at Social Value Portal, “she built the company’s commercial function, bringing new solutions to major public and private sector buyers and their supply chains.”
Previously, she was head of account management at UL EHS Sustainability (cr360), supporting account management for a portfolio of FTSE 100 and Fortune 500 accounts, including luxury brands and retailers. She began her career at Bureau Veritas in responsible sourcing, running supplier verification and compliance programs for Disney, Walmart, and major UK retailers.
“Our customers are navigating one of the hardest operating environments the consumer goods industry has seen, and they need a partner that helps them act on real data, not guesswork,” said Adele Stafford, chief revenue officer at Worldly. “Léyoh has spent her career on both sides of that work, helping brands set the standard and helping suppliers respond with credible, verified data. She knows what it takes to make the relationships work for everyone across the supply chain, and that’s exactly the experience I want shaping how we serve customers.”
“Businesses want to know what’s actually happening at every tier of their supply chain year-round, and they want that knowledge to drive strategic business and impact decisions they can stand behind,” said Goodall. “What drew me to Worldly is that it serves both sides of that relationship. Brands get verified data they can act on, and suppliers get a system that recognizes their work rather than burying them in duplicate requests. My job is to make sure every team at Worldly is organized around delivering that experience.”
