Technology can be so feminine!
Today, on International Women’s Day, we pay respect and appreciation to all female EQOS colleagues for what you plan, move, electrify, change and most importantly, how you transcend boundaries.
In our technology-driven industries, most women are still working in administrative jobs in 2023. But there is another way: Today we present female colleagues who have been proving themselves very successfully in typical male professions since their training and who are breaking down the traditional role model. They are multi-talented, because in addition to their jobs as project manager, construction manager, civil engineer and many more and some are also mothers and family managers. Meet five EQOS women who are dedicated to technology. See how they show their skills in technical professions every day on the construction site as well, taking on a lot of responsibility. We are proud of you and that you are part of the EQOS family! At the same time, we want to encourage young women to choose a technical apprenticeship and we wish for many more such great colleagues in these professions. You make an important contribution to society to counteract the shortage of skilled workers.
