Biography
Describe what the Mott Mac Life means to you in three words
Welcoming, fun and exciting
What do you enjoy about working here?
Most days here offer an exciting new challenge with support and encouragement from my colleagues. Mott MacDonald pay particular attention to the investment in their employees through initiatives such as the annual sports day event in our UK and Europe region, and a number of socials throughout the year.
Tell us about your specialism and why you chose it
I chose to work in town planning because of its contribution to placemaking and the betterment of spaces. I enjoy the problem-solving element of the job, managing the planning balance in order to find the best solution.
Why did you choose Mott MacDonald as a company you wanted to be part of?
As a multi-disciplinary consultancy, I knew that Mott MacDonald would allow me to interact with a number of teams and help to understand the life cycle of the built environment. The graduate scheme accelerates this process by learning alongside other new graduates.
How has your career progressed since joining?
While working here, my confidence and technical knowledge in town planning and beyond has hugely improved. I have been given more responsibility across a variety of projects with the support and knowledge of my peers. Mott MacDonald has invested in my professional development outside of the office, with opportunities to attend the Royal Town Planning Institute’s (RTPI) Young Planners’ Conference and West Midlands awards dinner. I have also frequently attended RTPI Young Planner and Women in Planning events in both Birmingham and London.
Are you involved in any additional initiatives at Mott MacDonald, aside from your day-to-day role?
As well as my role as a town planner, I have also been a town planning ECP representative, helping to support those in the team through their RTPI chartership. This involves pairing those who are going through the chartership process with a mentor, as well as organising trips to events and CPD events such as the RTPI Young Planners’ Conference.
