⏰ It’s never been a better time to start a career in carbon removals


🎓 Despite all the hype around AI workforce automation, the carbon removals industry is still very much recruiting early stage career professionals.


📊 A new analysis from CDRjobs shows that, in 2025, almost 70% of all new job openings (N = 2,566) were for entry level (26%) or early career (43%) professionals.


😍 I loved this stat when I saw it! It runs counter to the really depressing message young people seem to be getting: AI is taking over, there are no more opportunities for you.


📣 The data in CDR clearly speaks otherwise.


🤝 This is a sector being built from the ground up. We need people at the beginning of their careers, not just at the top.


🫵 If you're a student, a recent graduate, or making your first career move: CDR is actively looking for you.
