ACE and Ramboll are joining forces to celebrate International Women in Engineering Day on 25 June.

The free afternoon event (3.30pm to 6.00pm), which takes place in central Birmingham, includes prestigious industry speakers who will share views and experiences of encouraging and supporting more girls into a STEM future, as well as how the industry can inspire women to consider a career in consultancy and engineering.

Ceri Evans (Commercial Director, Jacobs), Anne Spackman (Chief Executive, Career Ready), Manon Bradly (Development Director Major Projects Association, and World Champion powerlifter) join current ACE chair, and Ramboll UK’s Mathew Riley for a debate, Futureproofing construction and engineering: How can we encourage and support girls into a STEM future?

  • Understand what needs to be done at school level and especially in early education stage to create a pre-pipeline, and/or
  • Care about engaging with parents, guardians, teachers and other career influencers, and/or
  • Can share ideas to help companies present themselves to prospective new female recruits and improve retention rates.
