Join the ICE Early Careers Network and the IStructE Young Members Group as they host a discussion on health, safety and wellbeing in the workplace. They will be cover topics ranging from managing on-site health and safety risk, to improving health and safety through design, as well as mental health and wellbeing in our workforce.
The event will be catered towards the Early Careers experience and will discuss how you as an Early Careers individual can highlight risk safely and feel confident communicating on H&S with your peers and seniors. The floor will be open for questions, so if you have questions that you need answered, please come along and join in the discussion!

principal structural engineer

John is a principal structural engineer for Mott MacDonald in their Belfast office. He spent much of his early career in mainland UK working on projects in the Oil & Gas Industry, Defence and Nuclear. Whilst predominantly office based, his site experience has taken him everywhere from climbing ladders in gas power stations, to walking around redundant nuclear reactor buildings, inspecting the soffits of offshore structures, and driving on a live RAF runway. Current projects include railways and bridges work. Working in a variety of different environments affords the opportunity and experience to assess risks & hazards both before and during the works.
