Lowri - Junior Project Manager

What has been your favourite experience?

Project managing the Big Bang Fair. It was incredible to be at the heart of it all. And now, I'm steering a defence market client project. It's exciting and challenging in a whole different way. I enjoy collaborating in the defence sector – it keeps you on your toes.

How has your graduate role at Atkins helped you grow?

My graduate role has allowed me to step outside my comfort zone in different ways, such as public speaking and leading a team. I look forward to establishing these skills as I move forward in my career by taking on more responsibilities in different roles on the team.
