Pathways Into Net Zero
Description
The climate tech industry continues to grow in Australia, with more jobs becoming available both in climate-specific businesses and companies looking to implement more sustainable practices. Melbourne as a city presents many opportunities for employees to transition to the sector and/or upskill in their current role.
The City of Melbourne and EnergyLab have brought together a panel of experts to share their career journeys as well as their advice for transitioning your current role into a net-zero job.
This event is for anyone who is:
- Curious about transitioning into the climate tech industry
- Looking to explore job opportunities on the night
- Looking to upskill quickly in the climate tech space
- A climate tech founder looking for potential co-founders and employees
Our panel of experts have experience across the entire sector with founders who have transitioned industries to those who specialise in climate recruitment.
Thank you to the City of Melbourne for sponsoring this event.
