Rapid Personal Development in a Dynamic Industry

Thursday, February 17, 2022

Rapid personal development comes when you’re regularly presented with new problems and challenges to overcome. Even more so when nobody has faced quite the same problem in the same way and when the expectations of clients and stakeholders continually increase.

That pretty much sums up the modern infrastructure sector and the projects in OIL’s pipeline of secured contracts.

In many careers, one year’s experience is much like two or three years’ experience. Opportunities to prove yourself and for continuous learning are limited. Not so with infrastructure.

Transport infrastructure is entering a dynamic and innovative phase. We can’t say for sure what the industry will look like in five or ten years – that’s part of the thrill – but it will definitely be different in so many ways.

Digitally-Driven and Sustainable

We know it will be more digitally-driven and sustainable. Technology will drive the development of digital twins, predictive maintenance and automated machinery powered by hydrogen, renewables or some other non-fossil fuel derived energy source.

Thanks to more efficient delivery methods, projects delivered late will go from being the majority to the exception.

Across highways and rail, and where those modes of transport intersect, there are multiple projects to be delivered. Our customers expect better value, better quality and more resilient infrastructure assets. And the travellers and businesses that rely on transport networks expect us to cause as little disruption to their lives as possible.

All of this is pushing innovation and creativity to the centre of project design and delivery. It’s hard to think of another industry that will be changed so fundamentally in the course of the next few years.

Rapid business growth and technical evolution create exceptional personal development opportunities for individuals with ambition. If you’re ready to take up the challenge we’d be delighted to talk to you.
