Among the young leaders who won awards at the recent Civil Contractors NZ Conference was Jemma Dutton of CPB Contractors, who was Highly Commended in the Personal Improvement Award category for her work on environmental management for the Transmission Gully project.
She is the first woman in New Zealand to become qualified as a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control, and won NAWIC’s Rising Star Award in 2018.
Four people were shortlisted for the coveted Emerging Leader Award, including Project Manager Elena Hoffman of Higgins Canterbury, Laboratory Manager Victoria Lord from Isaac Construction, Downer Mechanical Engineer Aimee Pene from Auckland, and winner Keith Matheson of Otago’s SouthRoads.
