I am responsible for conducting research on sustainability issues and trends, analysing data and information, and providing insights and recommendations to clients.

What you need is the ability to learn and adapt to the situation given to you. It is vital to acknowledge that you are someone that doesn’t know anything thus you should be asking questions.

Embrace every opportunity – There are so many clubs, networking events and workshops available at universities. Additionally, get involved with industry associations and their events. Having a network of people within the industry that you want to work in is extremely beneficial.

I loved working on the Great Western Highway Tunnel because I didn’t expect that I would be able to work on such an important and critical project as an intern.

As a Rail Graduate, I am fortunate to be provided with the opportunity to rotate through the business every 6 months, for a period of 2 years.

The best part about my job is that every day is different. Even though projects can take months to complete, it is rare that you repeat a task and it always feels like progress.

The daily tasks are incredibly rewarding as it allows me to essentially bring life to knowledge learnt in classes and see the reality behind it.
