'When I Grow Up': Fenner Conveyors Hosts Inaugural NAWO Event in Karratha

Last week Fenner Conveyors hosted its inaugural Women in Operations event as part of its partnership with the National Association of Women in Operations (NAWO).

'When I Grow Up' was a huge success, with turn out on the day far exceeding registrations.

Chief People & Culture Officer and facilitator on the day, Jen Green, said "We were thrilled to be able to provide an avenue for local youth to learn about the diverse career opportunities across operations."

Participants had the privilege of listening to a panel of incredible women in a range of roles, including belt splicers, train drivers, operators, engineers and business owners. "Their stories and experiences left us feeling inspired and empowered," said Green.

Following the panel session, particpants were able to visit booths set up by various businesses across the Pilbara, including Rio Tinto, Woodside Energy, Yara International, Svitzer Australia, Metso, Apprenticeship Support Australia, WorkPac, Pilbara Kimberley University Centres, PTM Pilbara Traffic Management and Monadelphous.

Fenner Conveyors thanks the Karratha community for coming along and supporting this event, the panelists, and to all the companies who engaged with future industry candidates!
