Women in Construction at London Build

London Build has been celebrating women within the construction industry since 2015, hosting an annual Women in Construction networking attended by over 1,200 women working across all sectors – making it the UK’s largest meeting of Women in Construction. 

This free-to-attend session gives professionals the opportunity to learn from a panel of established experts and rub elbows with some truly inspirational women who have made a significant impact on the industry.

The event will look at issues of gender imbalance and inequality within the built environment, as well as highlighting the outstanding achievements of those who are driving change across the industry. Kicking off at 10.30am on day two of London Build (28th Nov), we’ll see the Women in Construction panel take over the main stage – an upgrade from 2018 in order to accommodate the ever-increasing audience.

Moderated by Cristina Lanz Azcarate, London and South East Chair – NAWIC, the panel will feature five renowned speakers: 

  • Ruby El-Kanzi, Senior Design Manager I Construction London – Wates
  • Pamela McInroy, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Manager – High Speed Two
  • Sharon Duffy, Head of Transport Infrastructure Engineering – Transport for London
  • Michelle Hands, Director – N J Engineering
  • Michaela Wain, Managing Director – We Connect Construction

After the panel, the event will move to the Built Environment Networking Hub – a chance to network with established experts including the event’s Women in Construction Ambassadors and discuss the untapped opportunities for both women and men working in construction, diversity and equality.
