SistersIN is delighted to announce the continuation of its partnership with GRAHAM at Growth level for a second consecutive year, reinforcing a shared commitment to developing future female leaders across Northern Ireland and beyond.

GRAHAM is one of the UK and Ireland’s leading privately-owned construction, interior fit-out, facilities management and investment companies, delivering major projects across education, healthcare, transport, and civic infrastructure. With a heritage dating back to 1778, the company operates across the UK and Ireland and is recognised for its commitment to quality, collaboration, and social value.

Through the Growth partnership, GRAHAM continues to demonstrate its commitment to investing in people, strengthening communities, and opening pathways into leadership and industry for young women, including raising awareness of careers within the construction and built environment sector.

Ella Rourke, Partnerships Manager at SistersIN, said:

“We are incredibly grateful to have GRAHAM continuing as a Growth Partner for a second year. Their support provides valuable opportunities, industry insight and role models for SistersIN mentees, helping to build confidence, broaden aspirations and inspire future career pathways.

As a leading organisation within the construction and built environment sector, GRAHAM is helping to encourage more young women to explore careers in an industry where female representation has traditionally been lower. Partnerships like this are vital in helping us empower the next generation, and we are excited to continue working together in the year ahead.”

Susannah Moorwood, Group Head of Marketing and Communications at GRAHAM Group, said:

“This renewed partnership reflects our shared commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for young women. It also provides a powerful platform to showcase the breadth of careers within the construction and built environment sector, helping girls see the range of roles available and understand that it is an industry where they can absolutely build successful and rewarding careers. Through SistersIN, we are helping to open doors, build confidence, and connect students with real-world insight and role models across industry.”

The partnership will continue to focus on meaningful mentoring relationships, leadership development, and real-world exposure, connecting education with industry insight across key sectors.

As SistersIN enters its next phase of growth across Northern Ireland, partnerships such as GRAHAM remain central to scaling impact and ensuring long-term sustainability.

SistersIN is a leadership development programme designed to enable, empower and develop female pupils in education to become the leaders of tomorrow. This September, the programme will expand into 70 schools across Northern Ireland, reaching over 800 girls and continuing its mission to help young women discover their full potential, build leadership capability and confidence, and open new possibilities for their professional journeys.
