Announcing Beyond the Blog: Careers in Sustainability

**Update: Due to capacity issues, we’re moving to WeWork at 1900 Market Street for a larger space. **

It’s time to take this show on the road and offline.

We heard you! You guys want more in-depth content, and what a better way to do it than IRL? We recently announced to our email list & on social media that we’re kicking off a series of live events to give our community an in-depth perspective of current sustainability issues.

Our first Careers in Sustainability Panel event is bringing together four local sustainability leaders to share their paths, how the industry is changing in 2017 and how to find a career that makes an impact.

Whether you’re seeking a career in sustainability or an industry veteran, you’ll learn about how professionals in nonprofits, local government, a Fortune 500 company, and entrepreneur have made an impact through their careers.

Panelists:

Jamie Gauthier, Fairmount Park Conservancy
Megan Maltenfort, VWR
Dominic McGraw, Philadelphia Office of Sustainability
Melissa Lee, The GREEN Program
Moderator: Julie Hancher, Green Philly
