Women into Manufacturing and Engineering
Dr Kirsty Clode
Introduction
Kirsty Clode, Chair, WiME
Agenda
Women into Manufacturing and Engineering
The campaign so far
The skills gap
My request of you
The next event
The opportunity
Manufacturing contributes 10.5% of our employment in the Humber (285,000 people) with a value of £16.2bn
There is a high demand for people with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) qualifications in the Humber because they are very useful to our local industries. At present women are under-represented in these roles.
The skills gap
Information taken from Engineering UK Report 2016
The gender gap
UK engineering workforce
Britain currently ranks 28th
(out of 28 countries) in Europe
Gender gap in the engineering pipeline
Survey of 10 to 14 year olds
<20%
70%
Women into Manufacturing and Engineering (WiME)
WiME was developed to start addressing this issue - attracting female talent to STEM careers in Yorkshire and the Humber is critical to the region's success
Careers Advisors event Public events targeting girls and women
Current Partner companies
Our events
Delegates have the opportunity to:
Speak with women like them that currently work in manufacturing and engineering
See and talk about the work environment with current employees
Speak with Careers Advisors from the National Careers Service about the opportunities in the Humber region
Our Attendees
My request of you
We are planning a South Bank event at Scunthorpe UTC Friday 20th October for careers advisers/teachers etc Saturday 21st October for the public (ladies + girls and parents
Help us by - identifying the girls/ladies who should attend - ensuring they know about the event and tell them how useful it could be - ensuring your Careers Advisers come along
If you want to be 'a leader in industry for a day' contact us. Our partner companies are eager to show you around
Round Table Questions
Question 1 – WiME does not have the capacity to attend all schools. How can we get the biggest impact to ensure that all are getting
the information without WiME physically being there?
Question 2 - 40% of our attendees are 35 to 55 years old How can we best tap in to this talent? What are the routes back into manufacturing and engineering
if they are returning after a break? What are the routes into manufacturing and engineering
if they are new to this industry?
Thank you

The Challenge
The hourglass economy
Increased demand for both top and lower rungs of skills ladder UK demand projections by 2024: • 54% of all jobs will need level 4+ skills • 2.65 million job openings in engineering companies Position in Hull and the Humber: • In Hull and the Humber, the manufacturing sector
contributes some £3.5 billion of total output; 26% of total sectoral output – one of the highest in the UK
• However, the region has the lowest proportion of highly skilled residents in Y&H & a high proportion of NEET when compared to UK average
• ONS projections suggest that Hull and the Humber could struggle to meet the total demand for labour from its own population unless we do more to address some of the challenges
More to do
“…young adults surveyed who recalled greater levels of contact with employers whilst at school were significantly less likely to be NEET and earned, on average, 18% more than peers who recalled no such activities.”
Latest research finds 86% reduction in chance of being NEET following 4 or more encounters
Only in 40% of schools do young people have one encounter each year
The role of employers in inspiring and
encouraging the next generation of
engineers Businesses working together in partnership with each other and with education is, I believe, the most effective way to build a sustainable UK skills system to reduce unemployment and fill the skills gap.
