There are some nights which are truly magic, and the European Women in Construction & Engineering (WICE) Awards was one of them! Taking place last night, the industry came together to recognise the fantastic talent we have across the industry. We’re incredibly proud to share that Louisa Finlay, our chief people officer won the lifetime achievement award. We also had two other finalists, Enrika Beig Morton-Rowell CMgr and Karyn Herdman, both have bright futures ahead of them. Congratulations to Louisa, from site engineer to our CPO, you’ve been blazing a trail since you joined the industry – and we have no doubt that will continue! #WICEAwards2023
