The UK Construction Week (UKCW) Role Models Class of 2019 has now been announced and in the roofing sector, Kate Whatley and Jennifer Kinsella of SPV Group both made the list, as did Livia Williams for the second year running
This is the second year that UK Construction Week has run the UKCW Role Models initiative which will take the most inspiring people working from across the industry and help tell their story to inspire others to join.
Nathan Garnett, event director for UKCW explained: “We launched the UKCW Role Models initiative last year and were immediately impressed by the amount of amazing people out there. Their stories and achievements tell their own story and by putting them directly in front of those who are contemplating a career in construction, we are sure we can win hearts and minds”.
The UKCW Role Models will be asked to speak at UK Construction Week on the main stage or individual show stages, to take part in the UKCW student initiative and will write for the Construction Matters blog.
They will be invited to selected events in the coming months, as well as being VIPs at the main event in October.
