Our first Adelaide Connected Industry Briefing & Networking Event for the year was held on Wednesday 2 April 2025 and focussed on opportunities in the engineering and construction sectors.
Mark Johnson, Founder & Partner, EGM Partners facilitated and insightful discussion along with panellists Ben Haylock, Head of Conversion & Project Management, Lendlease, Thomas Reeslightfoot, Associate – Construction Engineering Lead, Robert Bird Group and Hannah Talebi, Design Manager, Guidera O’Connor, representing Engineers Australia, which highlighted industry specific advice and sector trends for skilled migrants.
These events will continue throughout the year each with a different focus and provide skilled migrants (arrows*) the opportunity to build professional networks and connect with potential employers, as well as likeminded individuals including *boomerangs in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
Adelaide Connected is proudly delivered by the Committee for Adelaide, with the support of a grant from the Department of State Development’s ‘Skilled Migration Talent and Industry Connection Program’.
