Happy International Women in Engineering Day 2022
We're celebrating #INWED22 by shining a spotlight on some of the incredible female #InventorsandInnovators at EDF who are helping Britain achieve Net Zero.
What inspires our female engineers?
Discover more about the four female engineers we’re profiling this International Women in Engineering Day and what motivates them to turn up to work every day.
"You can be creative as an engineer”
Louise is committed to challenging any stereotypes in engineering – and helping young girls realise that being a doctor isn’t the only career route open to you if you enjoy science at school.
"Doing something to help tackle climate change inspires me”
Anna switched from defence to renewables as she was inspired by the challenge of helping Britain achieve Net Zero. She’s now implementing a STEM programme to inspire other women to follow a career in engineering too.
“I used to resist being called a female engineer”
Nicola knew from the age of 12 that this was the only career for her. She remains as enthusiastic about the profession 25 years on because, as she says, what other career path offers such variety?
"Diversity is hugely important in data science”
Rebecca is a huge advocate of encouraging more women to work in engineering. She’s passionate about using data science to improve people’s lives and tackle one of the biggest problems our planet faces: climate change.

What's it like to work at EDF?
Pay, benefits and culture
Work is just one part of our lives and at EDF we offer a generous benefits package and the opportunity to explore flexible working. Curious about driving an electric vehicle (EV)? Take advantage of our EV purchase scheme. Or perhaps you prefer two wheels, in which case, have a look at our bike to work initiative. Whatever your interests, our rewards package is here to support your wellbeing.
Diversity, inclusion and belonging
At EDF, everyone’s welcome. It’s a powerful statement of our intent to make sure we’re about the people who work with us – a rich and unique mix of backgrounds and experiences that’s vital to shaping a strong and fresh-thinking organisation like ours.
At EDF we will not tolerate any behaviour that does not uphold our Everyone’s Welcome vision.
