Build Your Future Career with the Future Food Movement Sustainability Accelerator

The food industry is under pressure. Climate shocks, shifting regulations and rising expectations mean every business needs people who can lead through complexity and turn sustainability from a risk into a growth driver.

The Future Food Movement Sustainability Accelerator is a 7-week CPD-accredited programme designed to do exactly that. It helps individuals and teams build the confidence, clarity and practical capability to lead on sustainability, no matter their job title.

It’s not just theory. It’s a career accelerator.

“Coming into this from a procurement background, I wasn’t an expert - but this programme gave me the confidence to positively lead and direct our sustainability efforts. The cohort was the entire value chain…we had some really good discussions on what we were learning and what it meant to those different parts of the value chain. That mix was phenomenally valuable.

The live sessions and breakout groups gave space to talk, debate and question real challenges. And the expert speakers were fantastic - sharing latest thinking, legislation, reporting and practical ways to apply it all back in the business. I’m a long way further forward than before. One of the most valuable things I’ve done.”
Nick Henderson, Procurement, Supply Chain & Sustainability Director

Led by expert coaches working at the forefront of Net Zero, climate risk, regenerative agriculture, equity and human rights, the Accelerator gives professionals the tools to act confidently and credibly in their role - and grow into the next one.

“What sets this programme apart is that it goes beyond theory. It builds practical fluency in sustainability - whether we're talking about Scope 1, 2 and 3, climate risk or regenerative agriculture. It’s constantly evolving, just like the food system, and keeps pace with the latest insight and industry shifts.

In every cohort, we see lightbulb moments as people connect with others across the value chain tackling the same challenges from different perspectives.
Standing still is no longer neutral - it’s a business risk. This programme helps people understand that and equips them to act.”
Will Clare, Net Zero Expert

Whether you're in sustainability, commercial, NPD, operations or marketing, this is your opportunity to deepen your knowledge, build your network and unlock your next step.
