Spotlight on Energy
Discover careers that make a difference
Programme Date: 03 February 2026
Interested in Making a Real Impact on Climate and Sustainability?
If you are passionate about making a difference the careers choices in energy are almost limitless. The sector directly employs well over half a million people in the UK - from engineers working in offshore windfarms and power stations, to energy managers helping companies, schools and hospitals reduce their energy use, to scientists, business managers and environmentalists analysing the impacts of our activities on the world around us.
The Spotlight on Energy Careers session features a panel of diverse early-career professionals sharing their journeys in the Energy sector.
This session partners with the Energy Institute Young Professionals Network, who will also explain the benefits to current students in becoming an Energy Institute member.
