A group of NI Water's inspirational female leaders have lent their expertise and insight during the 'SistersIN' Mentoring Programme.

The three leaders took on three menses from local schools, providing them with exposure to female leaders who can serve as inspirational role models, learn about the world of work in their chosen field and get visibility to different career options.

As part of the programme, the three participating students were invited into NI Water to see a 'day in the life' of their mentor and experience meetings and activities. 

Kerrie Townsend, Culture and Engagement Officer at NI Water said: "This is a fantastic initiative, and we are delighted to be taking part and inspiring tomorrow's female leaders. As a large public sector employer we are keen to play our part in enabling greater representation of women into senior roles.

"For the students it's a fantastic opportunity to gain knowledge about the world of work and explore the different career options available to them. Having exposure to females working in their chosen fields at such a senior level is a wonderful opportunity and truly inspirational for the students."
