PageGroup sustainability head Joanna Bonnett on talent: ‘They’re here to change the world and if they can’t see that, they will walk’
If companies want to attract sustainability talent, they cannot hide behind any excuse.
Joanna Bonnett says she’s seeing a surge in demand for sustainability manager roles globally. But if this new generation of sustainability professionals wants to drive real change and perhaps make it to Chief Sustainability Officer level, they need to avoid getting stuck in a silo and truly understand the broader business.
As Head of Sustainability at global recruitment firm PageGroup and Founder of the Green Jobs Foundation, Bonnett is well-placed to make predictions in this space. In her view, this new generation of sustainability professionals entering the market are “very well served” to be the Chief Sustainability Officers of the future.
