Meet Ryan Edwards, one of our talented mechanical engineering apprentices, who jumped at the chance to visit and experience October’s Make UK’s The Makers Meet one day festival at the Custard Factory Birmingham which promised to set the tone for the future of manufacturing and engineering in the UK, and excite and inspire tomorrow’s young manufacturers and engineers.

Recent research by *WISE indicates that the UK is set to reach its goal of 1M women working in core STEM occupations in 2020. With the growing trend for more women than ever before working as professional engineers, we’re delighted to interview Georgina Cox, mechanical, electrical and public health (MEP) assistant at Mace, and learn more about her chosen career, as well as her opinion about today’s construction industry.

With 2018 seeing HM Government's Year of Engineering initiative, aiming to inspire young people to join engineering professions, some of our employees have volunteered to share their experiences of working in mechanical engineering. First up, Derek Page, who's been with Focus SB for two years, and has worked in engineering for 40 years.
