As part of Northern Ireland Apprenticeship Week in spring, the CIOB joined forces with CITB NI to host a Women in Construction Network event encouraging young women to consider a career in construction.

Talks from six successful women working in the industry covered occupations such as architecture, procurement and supply chain management, construction law, health and safety, design management and commercial management.

Opportunities to travel and progress were highlighted, as well as the fact that the industry is open to career-changers as well as those who enter from school.
