Property women take tour of Marischal Square

A group of prominent women in the property industry have toured Aberdeen’s £107million Marischal Square development.

Construction and infrastructure company Morgan Sindall has hosted a group from the Association of Women in Property (WIP).

Twenty women, including property lawyers, planners, architects and project managers, were shown around the landmark.

The development will include office space, car parking, a four-star Residence Inn by Marriott, cafes, restaurants and civic space.

Construction on the site started in the spring of 2015 and is on schedule to be completed in the summer of 2017.

Established in 1987, WIP is committed to increasing the number of women in the property industry – who still account for only 15% of the workforce.

Audrey Gilmour, design manager at Morgan Sindall, who led the tour, said: “Construction work is progressing well at Marischal Square and we were delighted to give the members of WIP a tour of the site.

“At Morgan Sindall we’re committed to promoting and developing the best talent, regardless of gender, but the construction industry in general still has a way to go to redress the gender imbalance. The work that organisations like WIP are doing to ensure this happens is commendable.”
