What do you enjoy most about your job?
I love being with my clients. Sales areas from start to finish are always good projects. Often with revisions that are recognised by our design team and then brought to life by our fantastic installation teams. They are generally tough to the end, with short deadlines, but the end results really do make me feel proud.
Do you feel there are any particular challenges or misconceptions relating to women working in your particular job?
I am generally asked ‘are you going to get muddy?’ when I arrive on site. What my colleagues and clients don’t know is that I am generally out running and getting very muddy at the weekend. We are not meek and weak individuals. Women are strong. We are able to deal with mud and the pressures that being on site throw at us. I enjoy working with all the aspects that an active site brings, with strong site managers, sales execs in offices, and seeing the plots transform.
Why would you recommend a similar career to other women?
I have found the wider idverde family to be extremely positive and supportive to both women and men alike. It does not feel like women are seen to be unable to do things or only suited to certain roles. I am surrounded by positive female role models with my peers in the RRM community and some fantastic senior females within the construction industry.
