The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) has announced the shortlist for the Top 100 Most Influential Women in Construction Awards 2024.
Now in their third year, the awards showcase the influential women who work in construction, making female and non-binary role models more visible and accessible to inspire others, and demonstrating that the sector is open to everyone.
The final Top 100 Most Influential Women in Construction will be unveiled at the awards later this year hosted by National Federation of Builders in Birmingham.
The shortlisted candidates for Wales are Lisa Kelly-Roberts, Katherine Evans and Alison Hourihane.
Deborah Madden, Executive Director, Nations Engagement at CITB, said:
“We are thrilled to recognise the incredible women and allies who are driving real change in the construction industry. Celebrating their achievements with the Top 100 Women in Construction honours not only their hard work but also inspires others and future generations. Together, we’re showcasing what’s possible for women in construction today and encouraging the next generation to pursue careers in this field.
“The Women in Construction awards highlight those leading our industry and those actively supporting a more diverse sector through their dedication and advocacy.”
Richard Beresford, Chief Executive Officer at National Federation of Builders (NFB), said:
“This is the third year of these awards and our first collaboration with CITB, which has led to a surge in nominations. The independent judges have worked tirelessly to create this competitive shortlist. Many of our previous winners highlight the significant impact these awards have had on their careers, emphasising their importance. It’s crucial that we continue to see them grow from strength to strength.”
