The future of careers in sustainability with Professor Luca Taschini

Join Professor and Chair of Climate Change Finance, and the Director of the Centre for Business, Climate Change, and Sustainability (B-CCaS) Luca Taschini, in London this autumn.

Luca will be joined by a fantastic alumni panel to explore the evolving landscape of sustainability careers in a time when climate action and regulatory frameworks face growing political and societal pushback.

• Tim Smith (MSc Carbon Finance 2021) Lead Investment Stewardship Manager - Climate Change at Norges Bank;
• Teresa Geruson (MSc Carbon Finance 2021) Commercial Lead at Airhive;
• Sharai Mpofu (MSc Climate Change Finance and Investment 2024) Senior Sustainability Analyst at a global asset manager.

The panel will discuss how sustainability roles are adapting to shifting priorities, from navigating rollbacks in regulation to finding new levers for change in business and investment. The session will consider what skills and mindsets are becoming most valuable, where opportunities are emerging despite resistance, and how future leaders can build resilient and impactful careers in this challenging context.

We are looking forward to bringing the alumni network together and invite all those with an interest in working in sustainability to come along.
