A young process engineer from Aberdeen has been nominated as a finalist of the prestigious institute of chemical engineers (IChemE) global awards.
Hayleigh Pearson, a member of engineering giant Costain’s award-winning graduate scheme – has been nominated within the Young Chemical Engineer in Industry category, and is one of only eight global finalists.
The IChemeE global awards are now in their 21st year and celebrate excellence and innovation in the chemical and process industries.
Costain oil and gas director Frazer Mackay said: “During her time with us, she has risen rapidly to become a key team player and competent engineer. We are delighted her achievements have been recognised by IChemE.”
Pearson said: “The support I have received has undoubtedly allowed both my technical skills and confidence to blossom.”
