Скачать или смотреть Women in Engineering Week- Civil Rail Engineering with Network Rail and HS2

In June 2022, the Meet Your Future team are hosting inspirational talks to celebrate Women in Engineering Day. Join us whilst we hear from women working for Greater Manchester engineering firms, their career journeys, and local opportunities. The events are perfect for your design technology, geography, maths and science classes – and ideal for those that have never explored or thought about a career in engineering before! These sessions will also help your teachers and students to challenge gender stereotyping in careers.


Women in Engineering Day is an international awareness campaign to raise the profile of women in engineering and focus attention on the amazing career opportunities available to girls in this exciting industry.


About this Session:

Hear from Daniela Cardoso from Network Rail and Gillian Angliss from HS2 all about their experiences as women in the Civil Engineering sector with a focus on the HS2 project and current opportunities.


HS2 is a new high-speed railway that will form the backbone of Britain’s transport network. It will connect towns and cities in the South, Midlands and North with faster, easier and more reliable travel that will put more opportunities within reach for millions of people for work, business and leisure.

The construction of HS2 is already supporting over 20,000 jobs across the UK. 17,500 roles are forecast to deliver the Crewe to Manchester section, with apprenticeships and skilled employment opportunities for local people to benefit from.

Network Rail owns, operates and develops Britain’s railway infrastructure and the role is running a safe, reliable and efficient railway, serving customers and communities.
