Hi all, I am currently working as a Senior Consultant in an energy and environment team - mostly policy evaluation but have experience in project management and people management, data analysis and client and stakeholder management. I am looking to transition into ESG / Sustainable Finance but am finding it difficult due to lack of transferable experience. Does anyone have any tips? (London based)

Should be pretty easy? Speak about the frameworks EU CSRD, TNFD and so on.. they are transferable. Happy to DM. Also London based and made a similar move from environmental consulting to in-house ESG.
