SocEnv are proud to be a partner of the IEMA Green Careers Hub.
There’s a looming workforce crisis. The UK needs hundreds of thousands of skilled green workers in all sectors 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?
On 15 June, SocEnv Licensed Member the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA), launched 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.
Go to full news storyGreen skills are needed in all sectors of the economy. A key example is how far short we are on the number of electricians needed to support the government’s ambitions for electric vehicles. We must have a plan in place to tackle the immediate issue of the climate emergency by working towards a robust net zero strategy and emphasis on renewable energy. Without the skills and training in place, we won’t ever bridge this gap, which is why I’m delighted we have launched the Green Careers Hub, to help everyone who’s interested in working in the growing green economy.
