[Life at Egis] Induction day! Last week saw the first #EgisArrival of 2025 when we welcomed new starters from across several of our business lines and operations, from the first months of this year. 🤗 Mary Doyle opened proceedings with our patented ‘walnut challenge 🌰’– our answer to speed intros, and a welcome from Andrew Doyle Director of Transportation, before settling into some presentations and discussions around the group’s history and structure in Ireland, and more importantly our future. Colleagues Amanda Nevin and Bryan Harrington presented an insight into career advancement opportunities in Egis, and a deep dive into one of our flagship projects – Ringsend WasteWater Treatment Plant. The group finished up with a tour of the impressive Motorway Traffic Control Centre, from colleague @Marc Quinn. Welcome aboard everyone – it’s really good to have you!👏

The Egis team enjoyed an evening of connection with clients and colleagues, celebrating excellence in engineering at the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland (ACEI) annual awards ceremony in Dublin’s Intercontinental Hotel last week. ✨ We’ve been very proud to support our colleague Anne-Marie Conibear all year in her role as President, culminating in this year’s Engineering Excellence Awards and AGM when she will hand over to incoming President Tim Murnane. We were proud to support the production of the comprehensive ACEI Annual Directory, which features Egis projects in Ireland and globally. The iconic Ringsend WasteWater Treatment Plant, where we were designers for its multi-project upgrade, graces the front cover. https://lnkd.in/dG368yaw The ACEI carries out an important role for the engineering sector. It advocates on its members' behalf, promoting fair and progressive practices, it supports equity and diversity in the sector and encourages interest in engineering among students from school onwards. ACEI also supports the government in the challenges we face in delivering sustainable infrastructure and buildings to enable our country’s continued growth. Engineers are in an important position to support the delivery of the National Development Plans and Ireland’s longer-term Project 2040 vision, and organisations like ACEI are their unified voice. Egis has been proud to support the work of ACEI this year – and bravo Anne-Marie for blazing a trail as ACEI’s first female President in its 80-year history!

We’re at the #NationalConstructionSummit today at the SportIreland campus, a great opportunity to update on innovation and developments in the sector.

After all no one knows an area like its community. We were delighted then to catch up with iProperty Radio on site to talk about our key projects and perspective on helping deliver Ireland’s critical infrastructure. https://lnkd.in/gEpuz2HV
