A company embedded in the engineering world for 30 years, EP&T Global is all too familiar with the historical lack of equity in the makeup of the STEM workforce.
That's why we're dedicating this space to celebrate and promote the amazing women in our team and their contributions to the ongoing success of the business.
Currently 24% of STEM graduates are women, along with 26% of the STEM workforce.
EP&T Global is proud to have over 50% of our technology, research & development roles filled by women.

My greatest achievement to date was at my last company, where I achieved an airline crew contract which was HK$5 million. I would love the opportunity to apply my experiences and knowledge in planning and working to achieve a similar result at EP&T Global. I am keen to explore other ways I can drive more sales.
