If you’re on the hunt for a new job where what you do actually makes a difference, or if you’re already in the field but just looking for a change of pace, an online resource site and jobs board dedicated to sustainability is encouraging you to consider becoming a Sustainability Consultant.

EcoCareers.org is an online jobs board and resource website for all jobs in sustainability, whether traditional green jobs like solar panel technicians or environmental scientists to jobs in industries that are newer to sustainability, like fashion and manufacturing. EcoCareers.org seeks to connect employers, hiring managers and HR personnel in the green sector with jobseekers and the top talent in their respective industries.

According to EcoCareers.org, Sustainability Consultants are one of the fastest-growing careers in the clean energy industry. The website’s job board alone has listed some 2,000 vacancies for Sustainability Consultants, spanning multiple countries and regions. With the green economy already experiencing a major boom and jobs expected to grow by billions within the next few years, you can be sure that Sustainability Consultants will be well-represented among those numbers.

This is one of the reasons why the organization is encouraging more people to consider the position if they’re looking for their big break in clean energy. All labour signs point to a shortage of skilled workers, meaning companies are more likely to be a little flexible with their hiring process. They may be more willing to take in people with limited experience, or with formal education that’s not exactly in the field they were looking for. In addition to getting to work in a role that has a meaningful impact on the climate, and the future of the planet, average salaries can range from:

USD$80,000/year in the USA
£45,000/year in the UK
CAD$66,000/year in Canada

Sustainability Consultants help a business transition to more environmentally-friendly working models. This can include providing expert, informed advice to C-Suite executives or even training all levels of staff on the policies and procedures needed to operate sustainably. Being a Sustainability Consultant is about helping to change mindsets in the workforce as a whole, as well as revolutionize the future world of work. The resources are there and the opportunity is right; all that’s waiting is you.
