Welcome to Cheddar 🧀!

Problem 🌍

Getting a job is super difficult. Getting a job at a company committed to Net Zero is almost impossible.

In the UK alone, 1m students graduate each year. 37% of them list climate change as their 'No.1 concern'.

This means that 370k graduates each year cannot make career choices matching their No.1 Concern.

And this is just in the UK...

Solution 🌱

Cheddar 🧀 - the frictionless job site for all jobs, featuring climate data. The only site you need to get hired.
