About Us

Women in RED

The mission of Women in RED is to empower women to lead courageously and achieve career success by cultivating a community of belonging, connection and growth.

Women in RED is RED’s internal women’s network, which forms part of the IDEA initiative. RED’s IDEA began in 2019, to promote an Inclusive, Diverse, Equitable and Accessible workplace for all employees.

Women in RED have a mission of empowering women to lead courageously and achieve career success by cultivating a community of belonging, connection and growth.

We want to inspire young women within the industry with an interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) at a much younger age to educate them on the opportunities available in construction and engineering. The aim is to accelerate forward with truly breaking the bias, whilst introducing more women into the industry.

Our members are committed to driving RED’s mission. We welcome involvement from all RED employees (not only females) to encourage, inspire and lead by example
