We are delighted to be sponsoring Women in Property (WiP) Student Awards for the Central Scotland region this year.
Our involvement gives us the chance to see the next generation of industry talent coming from Universities across the Central Belt into the built environment sector.
Partnering with WiP aligns with McLaughlin & Harvey’s social value pillars. Social value is the added value we create for society through our operations to improve the environment, economy and social wellbeing.
Our work with WiP is helping us to continue ‘Building Futures’. Creating career pathways and removing inequalities in employment and education.
Catherine Murray, a student who took part in the awards, is now on a Summer Placement with McLaughlin & Harvey.
The 2023 Awards are underway with 12 talented students interviewed in Edinburgh and Glasgow. The winners from both sets of interviews will be announced at the WiP Summer Drinks on 31 May. The two winners will then represent the region at the National “Best of the Best” Dinner at Claridge’s London on 21 September.
Good luck to all of the nominees.

As a judge at the recent Women in Property National Student Awards for the Central Scotland Region, I was so impressed by the calibre and confidence displayed by the students who reached the interview stage. Their research and knowledge of their “mini-project“ was remarkable given their limited experience. They were a credit to their university and it`s encouraging to see these talented individuals coming into our industry. So much so, that McL&H approached one of the students to spend some time in our business.
