Congratulations to the new Chair of ‘ICE North Wales Graduates Student Technicians’ which is Bethany Griffiths. Beth now works as an Assistant Engineer with us, and has been elected as a member of the ICE Council since 2022. In addition she is the first girl as Chair of the ICE!

Here is what she had to say “I have been an active member of the ICE North Wales Students, Graduates and Technicians Committee since 2018. Throughout my time on the committee, I have fulfilled the roles of secretary and vice-chair. I now sit as the Chairman, and I hope to leave an impact. My aim is to deliver successful events, workshops and visits to schools and colleges to represent the ICE and help individuals.

Whether that’s promoting Civil Engineering to young students to spark interest within the industry to build their future around, or to help individuals with their professional qualification journey.

The committee has helped me gain a professional Eng.Tech Qualification and I hope to submit my I. Eng application after completing University, I hope to help others along the way. I look forward to this year as chair, as workshops and school visits have already started, an exciting event is being planned and we hope to visit One Great George Street, London as a committee! I am grateful to be in this position, with the help of the wonderful people in the committee around me.”
