The Women in Civil Committee is more than a network - it’s a community committed to leadership, inclusion, professional growth, and driving sustainable impact across the civil construction sector.

Downer appointed WIC Partner

Downer has recently been named the official partner of Women in Civil (WIC) for the next two years, supporting the continued growth and impact of the WIC program across South Australia.

As a publicly listed Tier 1 company, Downer is committed to being an employer of choice, with a strong focus on diversity, inclusion, professional development and leadership. The company has several strategic initiatives including its ‘Thrive’ female leadership program and the ‘EmpowHER’ network which aims to create a supportive and inclusive environment for women and enhance female representation across the organisation. 

Downer are proud CCF SA members and we look forward to continuing to work alongside Downer and the WIC Committee to support a stronger, more inclusive industry for generations to come. Further information on the Downer WIC Partnership is available here.
