Building a culture of equality 🙌
From engineers and project managers to executive leadership and everything in between, women excel in every role at John Holland.
It’s part of how we transform lives and champion equality every day.
This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating the women making their mark across our John Holland projects and helping reshape what our industry looks like.
Here’s a glimpse of how we’re celebrating #IWD2026:
♀️ At our Sydney office, we were honoured to host Dr Natalie Galea from the University of Sydney Business school, who spoke about the cultural shift needed to continue to ‘Balance the scales’ and shared strategies to support gender equality. The session was streamed live to our entire business.
♀️ John Holland team members joined business and community leaders at official UN Women Australia events in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane, hearing from an extraordinary line-up of leaders, legal experts, advocates and changemakers who are driving real change for women and girls.
♀️ The Construction Collective, a staff-led group championing women within the Level Crossing Removal Project’s North Western Program Alliance (NWPA), invited leadership communication expert Ally Nitschke to share her expertise on having courageous conversations.
♀️ The Illabao to Stockinbingal (I2S) team is hosting a Q&A panel this month with women from the project, local female farmers, business owners, male allies and community leaders sharing their experiences across construction and regional agriculture.
♀️ Our Queensland Train Manufacturing Program project team in Torbanlea is hosting a panel discussion where team members are sharing their personal experiences working in construction and advice on building a more inclusive, gender balanced industry.
We’re proud to champion equality across our industry every day.
