Careers in Sustainability (2026)

We know that having a role where you are making a positive environmental impact or fighting climate change is important to many of you.   

During our Careers in Sustainability campaign, we’re shining a light on some of the options and providing information, inspiration, and advice on how to build skills and experience. 

This campaign is for all- it doesn’t matter what stage you are at in your career planning. Sustainability is a vital mindset for every workplace; you don't need to work in the sustainability or environmental sector to have a career that supports sustainability. 

  • We’ve worked with Social Responsibility & Sustainability to put together a schedule of events.
  • Search #EdSustainabilityCareers on socials and MyCareerHub.  We’re adding this hashtag to events, vacancies and other content relevant to Sustainability theme to make them easier for you to find.  

The Careers Service aims to be accessible to all users. If you have any specific needs, please contact the Careers Service to make appropriate arrangements.
