In partnership with Dattner Group, to support women in their leadership journey, we are offering 3 women across Trades and Operations the opportunity to take part in theCompass Program, a 3-month leadership development program designed for women.
On March 8, we celebrated International Women’s Day and all the incredible women at Programmed.
One of the main reasons this newsletter started was because we wanted a way to showcase the careers and talents of women working across PFM and PPS in trades and operations, as well as share success stories that would inspire others. We want to thank you for your ongoing contribution and all that you bring to your roles and for inspiring and leading the way for other women who are part of our Women Connect Community.

Lynette is proud a Dunghutti woman from Kempsey, NSW and has worked in the community service and education sector for over 20 years.
She sees her role as an opportunity to bridge the gap between diversity and inclusiveness by leading the way in line with Programmed core values to deliver optimum training and pre-employment programs to people who are looking for a fair go and opportunities to work in the Trade and Facility Management industry.
Lauren & Hayley are 2nd and 3rd year Apprentices in Electrical Technologies. We thought the best way to hear about their career in trades was to take a trip to Queensland earlier this year and film them in action. Hear how Lauren dealt with the biases of others telling her that she wouldn’t be respected in a trade and how Hayley has career aspirations to take on her own apprentice one day.
If you would like to find out more from Lauren or Hayley about their career paths, reach out by emailing womenintrades@programmed.com.au and we will connect you.
Candice joined our Property Services’ Northern Branch as a third-year apprentice and is now a qualified painter and Marcii is a second-year Apprentice in the team.

Here is some insight into what they shared with the group.
