Hi All! Looking to move into ESG/CSR. Just got my MBA in sustainability and focused on sustainability in my undergrad. Currently part of a project management team in nuclear and have previous management experience in retail banking. Any advice or suggestions on roles/firms I should be looking out for?

@OP, the reporting side usually wants to see direct working experience in reporting and disclosure, so I think your best bet would be to leverage your existing project management experience in a project management role. Once you have more direct exposure to ESG and CSR work you can look at transitioning over to reporting if it's really something you want to do. (It can be fun and glamorous, but it's also really tedious behind the scenes.)

Got a 30% salary bump, via an offer for Senior Consultant S&O from Deloitte. Currently underpaid at EY Advisory. I'm MBA and this year is my promotion year at EY for Manager. What to do? Get demoted and move to D? Or counter at EY? Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Hoping to make a big difference and include CSR/Sust audits and projects beyond for our clients! Any tips?
