Green jobs rise 27% YoY in March: report

On a month-on-month basis, green job postings rose by 12%.

Singapore recorded a 27% year-on-year (YoY) growth in green jobs in March, according to foundit.

On a month-on-month basis, green job postings rose by 12%, building on the 17% growth seen in February.

The engineering, construction, and infrastructure sectors led sustainability-focused hiring, accounting for 29% of all green job opportunities across monitored industries.

The consulting and strategy sector is also gaining momentum, contributing 11% of green job postings, driven by rising demand for sustainability consultants and environmental strategists as organisations integrate ESG frameworks into their operations.

Meanwhile, the education, manufacturing, and production sectors each accounted for 7% of sustainability-focused roles, whilst the energy, research, and technology sectors each made up 6%.

Amongst specific roles, ESG analysts saw the highest YoY growth at 28%, followed by sustainability consultants (+24%), renewable energy engineers (+22%), and green supply chain managers (+19%).

Other growing roles included environmental policy officers (+16%), carbon credit analysts (+14%), and climate risk specialists (+13%).

foundit added that Singapore’s green job sector is projected to grow by 11% in 2025, with renewable energy, electric mobility, and green infrastructure expected to be the main growth drivers.
