Demand for sustainability skills is fast outpacing supply
Worryingly, women are even more underrepresented in senior positions in the green economy than elsewhere.
Chief Sustainability Officers may soon struggle to build their teams, as demand for sustainability skills is rising faster than the workforce is acquiring them.
Data released today by Linkedin shows that âgreen hiringâ is surging, having peaked 24% above the average hiring rate this year. This demand is led by the US, where the rate of hires for sustainability-related jobs is 44% above average, followed by the UK (30%), Spain (28%) and France (25%).
