Finding Career Pathways into Social Value

Social Value is a term that has been used to mean the additional benefits a company can provide to wider society beyond their business as usual. In the built environment, where infrastructure projects can already lead to negative consequences for local communities, considering how a company or project can provide real opportunities and benefits to locals is hugely important.

In this episode, produced with Engineering Matters, we explore the evolving landscape of social value careers. From young professionals to experienced sector leaders, we discuss the diverse pathways into this growing field and the importance of aligning careers with values.
