A new survey carried out by the Society of the Irish Motor Industry (SIMI) found that 71% of respondents would recommend a career in the Industry to others. The survey of 140 women from across the industry was carried out as part of SIMI’s on-going drive to encourage more women to join what has traditionally been viewed as a male-dominated sector and coincided with the 7th Annual Women@SIMI event in conjunction with its sponsor Bank of Ireland. The event, which took place recently at the Gibson Hotel, Dublin, featured an impressive panel of guest speakers: Anne Cassin, Master of Ceremonies, Lucy Gaffney, current Director of Digicel Group and Sharon Keegan, founder of female-led athleisure wear company Peachy Lean.
