Women in Transport is delighted to announce that our esteemed partner, WSP, has renewed its partnership. WSP is a world-leading multi-disciplinary professional services consulting firm which supports significant projects in both the built and natural environments.
WSP provides engineering and design services to public and private sector clients in the transportation and infrastructure, property and buildings, earth and environment power and energy, resources and industry sectors, as well as a strategic advisory offering.
WSP is actively committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) across its operations, emphasising the importance of creating inclusive environments. They aim to promote gender balance and equitable practices, particularly in male-dominated sectors like transport and engineering. As part of their initiatives, WSP collaborates with Women in Transport, together advocating for greater representation and gender equity within the transport sector.
Dal Kailrai, Interim CEO of Women in Transport, expressed her enthusiasm about the renewal:
"We are thrilled that WSP has renewed its partnership with us, reaffirming our shared mission to build a strong network and community within the transport sector that can make a real impact. WSP's DEI efforts include internal programs to foster inclusive leadership and retain diverse talent. They also participate in industry-wide initiatives, helping companies benchmark their progress toward equity goals. We look forward to our continued collaboration and the promising future ahead.”
Paul Reilly, UK Deputy CEO, WSP said:
“We're excited to renew our partnership with Women in Transport, building on our longstanding membership. Over the past year, we've proudly founded and sponsored the South-West Regional Hub for Women in Transport, which reinforces our commitment to driving diversity and inclusion within the sector. This partnership not only enhances our ability to connect with women in the transport industry through the new jobs board but also empowers us to make significant progress toward achieving greater representation and gender equity in transport and engineering."
