According to a recent LinkedIn report, workers will need new skills for many roles by 2030 as the UK jobs market undergoes significant changes due to artificial intelligence (AI) and sustainability emerging as key areas of focus. AI engineers and researchers are now among the fastest-growing jobs in the UK, while environmental officer roles have also become increasingly important. The report found that more than half of the top 20 jobs on LinkedIn's "Jobs on the Rise" list did not exist 25 years ago, with new roles appearing continually due to technological advancements. As a result, companies are struggling to find candidates with technical and sustainability skills, with one in five UK workers worrying they do not have the necessary skills for the future. To stay competitive, businesses are being advised to focus on upskilling their workers and providing them with access to adequate tools.
