Women in Engineering

Showcasing the great contribution women have to our company.

Women have been under-represented in the engineering sectors for many years. At MEC, we aim to address the imbalance of women in our organisation, so we strive to attract those at all levels to our business whilst investing in our people to retain talent. This is because we recognise that a diverse workforce contributes to the business’s overall success and that of our clients.

At MEC we;

Actively recruit women to join our team at all levels

We recognise the value women bring to our industry
We positively promote women in engineering
We create a diverse working environment
We offer flexible working, along with full and part-time vacancies where possible.

At MEC, we are proud to support and encourage women in engineering, recognising the value they bring to our industry and our teams.

Hear from some of our female engineers:

"I would definitely encourage other women to consider a role in engineering, it is important to have females contributing to discussions and influencing designs within the construction environment."

Laura Gregson

Assistant Transport Planner

"It's important we challenge the stereotypical image of engineering, both in the workforce and the idea of roles available to encourage more diversity in this ever-evolving profession."

Emma Harris

Senior Utilities Coordinator

"It is especially great to see more women getting involved in such an interesting and ever-evolving industry, and there is always something new to learn

Charlotte Pollock

"If there’s something you want, go for it. Even if you’re scared. Do it scared, if you have to."
