Bright Network Women In Leadership 2022
For Bright Network’s first hybrid edition of Women in Leadership, we’re looking for 250 of our brightest female members to join us in celebrating and supporting women in the workplace.
This event gives you the chance to discover top opportunities with 22 world-leading employers. Hear from inspirational women who have overcome various challenges to become leaders and changemakers in their respective fields. They will be able to answer your questions and give advice on how to break into these sought-after, competitive and potentially male-dominated sectors. Make connections with those in the graduate and more senior roles that you aspire to, as well as meet the early careers teams that will help you get there.
Women in Leadership is a fantastic opportunity to meet like-minded students and receive advice from leading professionals, as well as discover firms who are passionate about gender equality. In-person attendees will also get the invaluable opportunity to network face-to-face with representatives from each of the firms in attendance.
