Help shape the future of skills for a Circular Economy

IOM3 collaborates with the Institution of Chemical Engineers and the Royal Society of Chemistry to ascertain skills gaps.

The Institute is seeking insights to build a clearer picture of the skills required to support a circular economy, particularly in the fields of chemical and materials science and engineering.

IOM3 has partnered with the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and the Royal Society of Chemistry to gather cross-sectoral insights and perspectives on the skills challenge. The findings will be shared with policymakers to help inform the development and implementation of relevant strategies, such as the upcoming circular economy strategy.

We’re conducting a brief survey to gather your input. If you work in or understand the UK jobs and skills landscape, we’d love to hear from you. The survey takes approximately 10 minutes, and we are accepting responses till Friday 25 July. 


With major national strategies underway, including circular economy, industrial decarbonisation and critical minerals, this is the moment to equip people with the right skills to deliver them. Your insights will help shape policy and future workforce planning.
