We caught up with Kieran Mooney, Graduate Engineer at Amey, to learn more about his time at the firm.
What do you enjoy most about your job?
There is lots to love! Having the opportunity to work on some of the largest projects in the country.
I am currently working on the Transpennine Route Upgrade project, which is a multi-billion-pound, transformative, railway infrastructure programme. It has been amazing for me to work on a project of this scale early on in my career.
Amey is really encouraging with both personal and professional development; I am currently working towards obtaining Chartership (CEng) status with the IMechE.
There is a huge Early Careers Community here at Amey which is great for networking and meeting new people who are in a similar stage of their career as you. It is a real positive as I have made some good friends and there is often special events and opportunities provided to the people in the community.
How do you make an impact at Amey?
Amey offers plenty of avenues for people to make a difference. One of the biggest challenges I am taking part in is the Cancer Research UK Charity Challenge where my team of other graduates and apprentices are competing against others within Amey to raise as much money as we can for CRUK over a 5-week period.
I have additionally become a STEM Ambassador, with the aim of giving back to students that are looking to pursue a career in STEM. Finally, I am part of the Charity Champion group at Amey who look to take part and promote fundraising, whilst sharing some of the great charitable work that is going on all around the business.
