Saturday is International Women’s Day (IWD). To celebrate IWD we caught up with female colleagues in payroll, early talent and recruitment, and engineering to learn what inspired them to take their chosen career, what needs to change to create more opportunities for women in engineering, what advice they’d give to women looking to pursue a specialist career and the favourite engineering project they worked on. Here is what they had to say…. #IWD #InternationalWomensDay #Engineering

Our project at 105 Victoria Street features in the March edition of Concrete by The Concrete Society, where this month's theme is low carbon construction. The article below shows how our team rose to the challenges of achieving a step change in carbon reduction for the landmark 105 Victoria Street project in the heart of London. #LowCarbon #Concrete #CivilEngineering

At our project at Imperial College London – White City Campus, following our installation of a new bridge, the team are starting work on the demolition of the old bridge over the Central line. The start of this work included installation of a suspended crash deck with the final steel frame installation shown on our short video below. The frames will now be decked out with timber prior to the reinforced concrete jack arch removal. Over the coming weeks we’ll provide further updates on the demolition of the bridge, so stay tuned. #CivilEngineering #Demolition #Infrastructure

Oxford North, the new £700 million innovation district in Oxford, is to welcome Careys Construction Campus to provide free, flexible on-site ground working construction training which will guarantee an offer of an interview on completion of the training and boost jobs and talent in the industry. The training camp will be set-up to provide practical learning space as an initial pilot at Oxford North. The three-week training course will be available to people aged 17 years and over who have been a resident in the UK for the last three years and live in England. The Campus is due to open at the end of March 2025 and the first pilot course will run for three weeks from 8am to 4pm five days a week.
