This year’s Margaret Hickey Award winner will be announced at our annual Women in Trade event on March 28, 2025.
The Margaret Hickey Award recognises women who have overcome the barriers of working within the building and construction industry to succeed. Bowens has continuously encouraged and empowered women by offering employment opportunities across multiple departments within the business. In homage to the success of professional women at Bowens, we have named The Margaret Hickey Award after the first woman Bowens employed in 1913.
Helma Gash, winner of the Margaret Hickey Award 2023
