Read Full ArticleSeventeen engineers and six companies have been shortlisted for the Young Engineers Awards 2020.
The awards include: Graduate of the Year, Employer of the Year and Apprentice of the Year.
The Apprentice of the Year award, launched in 2020 to coincide with the 25th year of the Young Engineers Awards, allows the CIBSE community to recognise early career contributors and to acknowledge the invaluable contribution played by apprentices.
Entrants were required to submit a short video presentation on the topic: ‘Why the role of a building services engineer is a good career.’
Eight newly graduated engineers join the line-up to be shortlisted for the CIBSE ASHRAE Graduate of the Year award. The CIBSE ASHRAE Graduate Award has long been a sought after accolade for young building services engineers.
This year’s winner will enjoy a paid-for trip to an ASHRAE Winter Meeting in 2021.
Six companies make up this year’s Employer of the Year shortlist.
The award is split into three categories for small, medium and large employers, together with an overall winner. Employers were asked to demonstrate how they place young engineers at the centre of their business and invest in their career progression with clear strategies for recruiting, nurturing and empowering them.
The Young Engineers awards collectively shine a spotlight on the pool of new talent and future leaders who are vital to the future of our industry, while also celebrating those who champion, mentor and nurture them.
Ewen Rose, Graduate of the Year judge, said: ‘We are delighted that the CIBSE ASHRAE Graduate of the Year Award is able to celebrate its 25th anniversary with this wonderfully impressive line-up of finalists. This award has matured into one of the most sought after professional accolades for young engineers. Everyone attending the final online on October 8th should be hugely reassured about our profession's future when they see the range and depth of talent on show.’
Winners will be unveiled on 8 October at the online Young Engineers Awards event, delivered in partnership with CIBSE Patrons, and sponsored by Kingspan Industrial Insulation, Baxi and Ideal Commercial Boilers and Swegon Air Management.
