As the professional voice on sustainability, IEMA partners with influential leaders like you to navigate complexity, inspire innovation, and deliver measurable impact.

Whether sustainability is at the heart of your work or a strategic priority, IEMA amplifies your influence and impact with bespoke resources, expert support and tailored training. From educating your workforce, to connecting our leadership with yours, to convening partnerships on key priorities, the IEMA Corporate Partnership Team collaborates with you to elevate your sustainability strategy and drive organisation-wide transformation.

How is organisational partnership different to individual membership?

We understand that achieving sustainability goals can feel complex. Leaders are navigating increasing regulatory demands, evolving skill requirements, and growing stakeholder expectations—all while striving for internal buy-in. The difference between IEMA Corporate Partnership and individual membership lies in the scale, strategic support, and impact an organisation can achieve.

While individual membership focuses on personal development, Corporate Partnership is designed to deliver organisation-wide transformation.

How does IEMA amplify your impact?

  • Identifying green skills essential for different job families, using the IEMA Skills Map, to align your workforce capabilities with strategic requirements.
  • Recommending solutions, from foundational learning to Professional membership qualifications for more in-depth roles, to empower your workforce.
  • Providing resources like toolkits and professional development programs to strengthen your organisation’s resilience with cutting-edge resources and insights.

And by investing in sustainability skills, you can:

  • Retain top talent with enhanced professional development opportunities.
  • Align with corporate social responsibility objectives and regulatory requirements.
  • Secure a competitive edge through sustainability-driven innovation.

What benefits do our current partners value the most?

Across industries—from infrastructure to healthcare, hospitality to logistics—leading organisations partner with IEMA to overcome sustainability challenges, unlock opportunities, and future-proof their workforce.

Bespoke solutions for workforce development

IEMA collaborates with organisations to identify the green skills needed across all job families using the IEMA Skills Map. This ensures tailored learning pathways that align workforce capabilities with sustainability priorities. As Kier puts it in their Large Corporate Partner bio, IEMA plays a “vital role in raising awareness and competency across our organisation.” Responsible recruitment plays a role in workforce development and IEMA Corporate Partners are given access to preferential rates on the IEMA Jobs Board.

Working with a trusted sustainability leader

IEMA is the professional voice on sustainability, delivering recognised training, resources, and qualifications that set the standard for excellence. Equans highlights IEMA’s leadership in “driving environmental and sustainability excellence” to align their strategies with environmental and social responsibility within their Large Corporate Partner bio.

Support in driving strategic leadership and transformation

IEMA empowers organisations to strengthen their leadership and influence through thought leadership, connections, and training. Greene King values the opportunity “to collaborate and implement impactful solutions,” while Amey highlights how IEMA Corporate Programmes “spark meaningful conversations and inspire leaders to take action.”

Being part of a global network for collaboration and innovation

Through IEMA’s network, organisations access resources, best practices, and opportunities to collaborate with peers tackling shared challenges. South Western Railway says their partnership “opens doors to share knowledge and best practices,” enabling progress toward common goals. For ABM, the partnership enables collaboration and shared learning: “We partner with IEMA to learn, share best practices, and deliver the stepping stones to Net Zero.”
