IEMA launches new resource for sustainability careers

And finally ... New Green Careers Hub launched

IEMA launches new resource for sustainability careers - Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment

There’s a looming workforce crisis. The UK needs hundreds of thousands of skilled green workers in all sectors1 and employers are increasingly worried about what they call the ‘war for talent’ for employees with green skills. But how do you become part of this vibrant and growing green skills workforce?

Today, the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA), is launching the Green Careers Hub, a brand-new government backed resource to give insight into the green jobs of the future. Whether you are about to enter the workforce or an experienced professional looking to change career, the Green Careers Hub features a wealth of information for anyone looking to find out more about green skills, green jobs and potential career pathways.

Highlighted in the government’s recent Net Zero Growth Plan, ‘Powering up Britain’2, the Green Careers Hub features original content from IEMA and a range of partners and contributors, brought together in a single, easy to use resource. There are tips on job hunting and career advice, video case studies from a variety of roles, a jobs board and a “jargon buster” to demystify sustainability terminology.

The launch comes at a key time, as a report from the government’s net zero watchdog, the Climate Change Committee3, urged that net zero guidance should be embedded across the school curriculum.
