For this week's Industry Review, Bobby thought he'd take a look at the construction industry in Ireland and in particular speak to women working in the sector. The conversation focused on how to make construction more appealing to young women and the adverse effects that Covid has had on construction materials and overall costs.

Joining Bobby was:

  • Jenny Thompson, Co Owner and Painter & Decorator at 'Kelly and Thompson'.
  • Orla Hegarty, Lecturer and Assistant Professor at UCD School of Architecture, Planning and Environmental Policy.
  • Sinéad Savage, Head of Business Development for Mannings Construction Group, chartered Construction Manager and fellow of the Chartered Institute of Building.
