EMPOWERING CONVERSATIONS, INSPIRING FUTURES!

This year we held our inaugural Breakfast Panel in celebration of International Womens Day. On the day we came together to honor the brilliance and resilience of women in engineering.

From sharing stories of overcoming challenges to highlighting groundbreaking achievements, it was an inspiring morning filled with empowering conversations and meaningful connections.

Together, we are able to inspire inclusion and create a brighter future for all.

DUBAI HAPPINESS DAY

In March, our team in the Dubai office packed food parcels to give back to local workers and the community in and around our office.

We sponsored the local Ramadan Sharing Fridge in the Media One ‘Business Tower’, which was an initiative that was started by an expat in 2016 to share food during the holy month of Ramadan.

Since then, Ramadan Sharing Fridges were found all over the UAE to spread the culture of giving and support those who needed it most.

The team distributed 300 food bags at sunset. We spread our own bit of happiness and honoured the breaking of the fast.

EMPLOYEE

How long are you working with Jones Engineering?

Almost a year! 11 months to be exact.

What is your current job title?

I’m a Marketing Executive.

What is the best advice you ever received?

Do what you like and take the risk.

What’s your favourite way to unwind after a long day?

Clay, it’s relaxing and creative.

Tell me something about you that most people don’t know. I am scared of birds, they are creepy and seagulls in Dublin are massive!

If you could visit any place in the world, where would it be? Japan, I’d love to discover Japanese culture and gastronomy.

If you could only eat one type of food for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?

Spanish omelette. With onion, of course!

If you could have dinner with any three people, dead or alive, who would they be?

Frida Kahlo, Clara Campoamor and Karol G.

What is your favourite thing about living in Ireland?

The people. Irish people are lovely and funny, always up for good craic! Also, Dublin is a multicultural city and I love having the opportunity to meet people of different nationalities.

ANDREW TIGHE

LOCATION: NORDICS SPOTLIGHT

How long have you been with the company?

I have been working with Jones Engineering Fire Protection since 2017.

What is your current job title?

I am currently the Regional BIM Manager for Jones Engineering Fire Protection, managing and maintaining the Building Information Modelling processes within our design portfolio across Ireland, the Nordics, and mainland Europe.

What’s the best advice you can give to someone who just started their career?

I would tell them not to be afraid to take risks or make mistakes as every setback is an opportunity to learn and grow stronger. To use failures in tasks they do within their early career as stepping stones toward success going forward. I would advise them to define their short and long-term career goals and then use these to develop a strategic plan to achieve them. By doing so, this will give them clear direction to stay focused and motivated, even during challenging times.

Tell me something about you that most people don’t know. As well as having the badge of Regional BIM Manager, over

the course of my professional career, I have also been an apprentice Baker, a Barman, and qualified Bricklayer.

If you could visit any place in the world, where would it be? I did a lot of travelling when I was younger but one place I never got to and always wanted to see was Tokyo, Japan.

If you could only eat one type of food for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?

Fillet steak with pepper sauce and Mash. A great all-round meal any day of the week.

What’s your favourite way to unwind after a long day?

Obviously spending good family time with my wife and kids after a hectic day in work is the best way for me to unwind but when I am working overseas within my role, the best stress relievers after a long day are to get out on the road bike or to go for a run.

If you could have dinner with any three people, dead or alive, who would they be? This is a tough one, but I think I would choose David Attenborough to hear about all of the extraordinary wildlife he has seen over his career, Robin Williams for his comedic genius, and probably Elon Musk to try and understand his vision of how the world will be in the coming decades.

In March we sponsored the Swedish-Irish Society, St, Patricks Day parade in Stockholm.
