It is a great time to be interested in the green sector, as green jobs are growing at around four times the rate of the overall UK labour market.
Student Futures would like to bring LJMU students a range of careers talks, workshops and activities around the themes of Sustainability and Green Jobs.

In 2023 Student Futures ran a Green Internship Project with three LJMU students. Their assignment was to explore the area of Green Careers and Skills in more depth.
In collaboration with a number of student interns, Student Futures have created a range of careers resources for students with disabilities or health conditions or those who are neurodiverse.
Many students and graduates with a disability, health condition or neurodiversity worry about whether to tell a prospective or current employer. In legal terms, this is referred to as ‘disclosure’. It is both a balancing act and a personal decision whether and when you want to share information about your disability during the recruitment process or in the workplace.
Understanding the law will allow you to advocate for yourself and know your rights as a disabled job-seeker or employee.
