Responsible retailing: careers in corporate social responsibility

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is the buzz-phrase of the moment, but is the sudden appearance of retailers’ consciences just a fad, or are they here to stay? We spoke to CSR representatives from Marks & Spencers and Sainsbury's to find out the truth behind the campaigns and what roles are opening up for graduates in the retail industry.

Opportunities for professional development in environmental careers

Environmentalism has come of age and offers many graduate careers in the environment sector. It can lead to Chartered Environmentalist status in a wide range of specialisms.

Working for environmental NGOs and charitable organisations

Changes to our environment affect not only the physical landscape but also the flora, fauna and lives of the people living on our planet. The areas you could potentially work in are very diverse but frequently related. Environmental problems and third world poverty are at the heart of the political agenda and they often go hand-in-hand.
