About this event
The AITPM NSW Branch and Jacobs are excited to host an in-person event at the Jacobs office, which will demystify the transport industry through first-hand experience from three young professionals in the transport planning, engineering and modelling space.
This is a great opportunity to hear a diverse range of topics such as future mobility, the importance of customer-centred design, and working in the private versus public sectors from winners of the AITPM Young Professional Award (YPA):
- Edwin Lai (2022 YPA Winner) – Graduate Transport Engineer at Jacobs
- Jessica Athayde (2021 YPA Winner) – Project Officer (Customer & Product) at Sydney Metro
- Isabella Kim (2020 YPA Winner) – Senior Transport Engineer at Blue Mountains City Council
We welcome university students and graduates of all ages who would like to learn more about the transport industry and AITPM, the peak body for transport practitioners in Australia!
The event will have limited seating with the maximum number of attendees capped at 30 so please register your interest in advance. Refreshments will be provided.
This event is kindly sponsored by Jacobs
