Join us as we celebrate the Women of Steel.
S4 E5: You see what you can be: Meet Dr Becky Waldram
For the first time in the podcast’s history, we speak to an external Woman of Steel.SUSTAIN’s Dr Becky Waldram didn’t plan for a career in the steel industry but finds herself deeply embedded in projects aiming to create carbon neutral, resource-efficient UK steel supply chains.Growing up with a passion for discovering how things work, Becky always wanted to wander down the STEM career path. Influenced by a D&T teacher at school, Becky pursued engineering rather than computer science, and now works in a predominantly female team!Find out how this industry anomaly has changed the dynamic of Becky’s working day, and how she’s dedicates time to inspire the next generation of STEM minds.Find out more about SUSTAIN: https://www.sustainsteel.ac.uk/
