A day in the Life of a Full member working in Environmental Auditing
In the last episode of the third season of a day in the Life miniseries we digitally shadowed Alexis Massey a full member of IEMA who’s career path took him from working in environmental auditing to work for the Environment Agency as a Sustainable Business Manager, managing a team of Sustainability professionals.
The third season of a day in the Life miniseries is about Environmental Auditing. On our second episode of this season we digitally shadowed a practitioner member Alasdair Dalzel-Job who works as an Environmental business advisor conducting energy audits on SMEs across the UK.
The third season of our 'Day in the Life miniseries is based around Environmental Auditing and in this first episode, we digitally shadowed two graduate members that work within this area.
In this special episode in our Day in the Life series we virtually shadowed three IEMA Student members who shared insights on IEMA membership and gave tips on those looking at a career in environment and sustainability.
This session ran through how to construct a marketing plan – for any type of business, big or small. It will highlight common pitfalls, and give confidence to those wanting to get into marketing, starting their marketing careers, or serve as a refresher.
IEMA Futures held an interactive panel event, designed for IEMA members in their early careers or career changers who are looking to upgrade to a Practitioner.
How can you help your team to see how becoming more sustainable is a win win for all involved and make it a success? Our event welcomed Virginia Cinquemani from 'SustainABLE' who shared necessary techniques to gear up for success with the right mindset shift and fundamental skills of a successful sustainability professional.
This session provided an insight from one of our IEMA members into establishing a ‘green champions’ network in your organisation.
