Whether you're passionate about renewable energy, sustainable architecture, environmental policy, or eco-friendly technology, there are countless paths to explore within the world of sustainability

What are green jobs?

Green jobs are careers that focus on preserving or improving our environment. They can involve anything from developing renewable energy sources to reducing pollution or waste. Jobs in sustainability span a range of industries, from science and engineering to construction and architecture.

How big is the sustainability sector?

The UK job market is embracing sustainability like never before. According to PwC's Green Jobs Barometer, which measures the success of the UK's regions and industries in creating green jobs, the number of sustainable jobs advertised has almost tripled in 2024.

And it's not just companies driving this trend, but also employees accelerating the green transition. The World Economic Forum's The Future of Jobs Report 2023 reveals that just over a quarter of adults consider sustainability a non-negotiable when looking for a job. This represents a major shift in the priorities of the workforce, with employees increasingly seeking roles that contribute positively to the planet.

Can anyone secure a green job?

While promising professional and scientific opportunities exist, a critical gap threatens progress on the track to net zero - a lack of skilled workers in trade positions.

Green skills are the knowledge, abilities, values, and attitudes that enable a person to contribute to a more sustainable future. This includes technical expertise in renewable energy and energy efficiency, and the ability to think critically about environmental issues and develop innovative solutions.

According to LinkedIn's Global Green Skills Report 2023, only one in eight workers possesses green skills, while companies are 29% more likely to hire candidates with green capability.

Recognising this challenge, the government's Green Jobs Taskforce prioritises removing barriers for underrepresented groups, particularly women, to access green jobs.

What qualifications do I need to get a job in the green market?

First and foremost, consider upskilling. If you don't have existing sustainability experience, explore training programmes to bridge the gap. it's crucial to equip yourself with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in this evolving field. While traditional academic qualifications are valuable, don't underestimate the value of practical experience, certifications, and specialised training in sustainability-related fields.

Kickstart your sustainability journey with a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC). These courses allow you to demonstrate your passion for sustainability while acquiring valuable new skills. Here are some examples:

How do I get a job in a green industry?

Continued professional development is a valuable option for those already employed. Explore professional qualifications such as:

Proactively seek opportunities to gain hands-on experience to make significant contributions to sustainability initiatives. Consider joining a university sustainability club or an employer-led programme to bolster your professional portfolio.

Internships offered by many global players can also be a springboard to demonstrate your commitment to sustainability:

Make sure you tailor your CV and cover letter by highlighting your experience, whether this is through accreditations, internships or work experience to boost your chances in a competitive job market.

Autistic young people want a chance to prove themselves in the workplace – just like everybody else starting out in their career. But sadly, we know that getting a foot on the employment ladder can be harder for these young people. Around 700,000 people in the UK are autistic and yet just 29% of autistic adults are in full or part-time paid employment. Increasingly employers are starting to understand the benefits of a neurodiverse workforce – and are seeking employees who can offer different ways of thinking and problem-solving.

National Saturday Club

If there isn’t a space in the school timetable for the imagination to thrive, then we hope we can create this space at the weekend – a space that is challenging and educating, but also inspiring and fun.

Andrew Cowan, Director of Creative Writing, University of East Anglia

Across the UK, the National Saturday Club gives 13–16 year olds the opportunity to study subjects they love for free, at their local university, college or cultural institution.

Club members attend local classes every Saturday, for up to 30 weeks of the year, where professional tutors create and lead programmes that encourage experimentation and introduce a wide range of activities and practices. Here, Club members are free to explore their creativity, discover their talents and develop their skills.

The National Saturday Club brings everyone in the network together for shared national events – the London Visit and the Summer Show, and organises a Masterclass for each Club, giving members a vital link to the professional world.

By making all Saturday Clubs free and with no exams, young people from all backgrounds are encouraged to get involved in a unique and exceptional process of discovery and learning that works alongside the school curriculum.

As well as giving young people the opportunity to learn new skills and gain practical experience, taking part in the Saturday Club programme has proven long-term benefits that range from improved self-confidence to becoming better at thinking independently and expressing ideas.

What are professional and technical universities? 

# data[].attributes.body
Professional and technical universities specialise in working with industry and employers. That means that their students are empowered with career-ready skills, and their research supports businesses to innovate and thrive.

University Alliance is a group of some of the UK’s leading professional and technical universities. Our members deliver applied, career-informed teaching across healthcare, the creative industries, social sciences, business, engineering, computing and more.

What is it like to study at a professional and technical university?

Our students say there are three main things that make the experience of studying at one of University Alliance’s professional and technical universities stand out:

Practical learning and assessment. At our universities, you are as likely to be assessed for a practical project as you are a written essay. The teaching style tends to be practical and interactive too.

Employer contact. Employer contact is often built in to courses at our universities. This may mean placement opportunities are included, that teaching is delivered by industry professionals or that employers are commissioning students to deliver projects that are then assessed.

Industry-standard facilities. Our universities often have facilities that are so up-to-date they are used by local business, industry and employers. That means students will encounter employers in and around campus, and that they learn using the same equipment they will then use in their careers.

'Earn as you Learn' on a Degree Apprenticeship

Degree apprenticeships are not just an alternative to going to university, they provide sixth form school-leavers with an equivalent work-based route to graduate employment. Degree apprentices earn a salary throughout their apprenticeship and all their university tuition fees are paid-for by their employer. Degree apprenticeships lead to an undergraduate degree or a professional qualification and are available in a wide range of sectors, including engineering, accounting, law, business & management, banking & finance, and technology.
