Sustainability in Early Careers

This landmark report—produced by Oxford Brookes University in collaboration with Windō, UN Global Compact Network UK, PRME UK & Ireland Chapter and a national network of university and employer partners—offers a comprehensive picture of the UK’s early careers landscape through a sustainability lens. Drawing on insights from over 200 organisations and a series of in-depth interviews, it explores the supply of, and demand for, sustainability-related placements, internships, and graduate roles across sectors. The report also examines how clearly these opportunities are signposted, how ready students are to take them on, and what barriers still stand in the way.
