What was really great about starting at Engenuiti was that, within the first week, I was already starting to work on an active project involving mass timber. This may sound daunting, and it was at first, but feeling like a key part of the team from such an early stage helped to give me a feeling of pride in what I was doing and made me feel like I was making a difference.
I have been involved in a variety of different projects, in each of which I was able to learn something completely new which was always very rewarding. From early on, I started work on detailed timber connection design which involved a lot of drawing and hand calculations. Having not done much on connection design at university, it was certainly a steep learning curve, however, I received great support whenever I felt I needed it and so the tasks always felt achievable.
The people at Engenuiti are key to making it a great place to work, as the atmosphere is always supportive, friendly and fun! There are regular team drinks, socials, and who can forget the annual office study trip, which all help to give the office a tight-knit feel and have meant I have made some great friends along the way.
