Aquent Sustainability

Hire like the planet depends on it.

Built to empower the future of business, we're committed to matching our clients with the best sustainability professionals on the planet. Whether you're building an in-house sustainability team or need an expert to advise on best practices, our sustainability recruitment and consulting services help companies grow their impact.


Why Aquent Sustainability?

In 2019, we decided to double down on our sustainability efforts with the goal of becoming a carbon negative company. We proudly achieved our goal by significantly reducing our carbon footprint and investing in a number of large-scale clean energy projects. Partnering with Aquent means you’re not adding to the carbon footprint of your supply chain or contingent workforce.

For decades, we've helped companies understand emerging roles and evolving needs, identify gaps on their teams, and recruit talent with the expertise they need to achieve big goals. Whether you're hiring your first Chief Sustainability Officer or beginning to scale your sustainability efforts, we can help you bring on the right people, right away.

As recruitment experts, we shortlist only the best talent and provide strategic guidance throughout the process. Every search starts by creating a shared understanding of your needs. Then, we tap into our sustainability talent network, thoroughly evaluate each candidate, and curate our top matches for your review.
