Event description

Young Women's Network - Careers and Aspirations

The EY Foundation is delighted to announce that we will be hosting a Young Women’s Network event this November: Inspiring & Raising the Aspirations of Young Women – Building a Bridge to so called ‘non-traditional careers for women’. This will be a great opportunity to engage and inspire young women with the career opportunities available in sectors such as Financial Services and Construction which are keen to reach out to more young female talent. As part of the event we plan to host a panel of esteemed female role models who are key influencers within these industries to share their different journeys to success, and as such, we are reaching out to you.

The target audience for the event is 30-40 young women (14/15 year olds) who are thinking about their future careers. Panellists will share their story and passion for the industry they are in as keynote speakers. This will be followed by an interactive speed networking event hosted by other volunteers, from a range of organisations and with a range of levels of career experience.

If you would like to nominate any other female role models, who could be interested in supporting this event as part of our speed networking session, please do let us know.

If you have any queries about the event, please do not hesitate to contact us.
