Hello everyone, and welcome to this week’s Member Monday! 
We have so many extraordinary businesswomen among us, and our goal is to highlight each and every one of them!
Stay tuned to our social channels every #Monday, and feel free to reach out and connect with our members directly using the contact details provided at the bottom of each post. This week, we’re pleased to introduce you to one of our esteemed members, Samia Walsh 
“Hi, I’m Samia Walsh, the Director and Project Manager of SJ Highland Construction Ltd, a thriving construction company I co-founded with my husband in 2019. After relocating to the Highlands from England in 2018, we established the business, merging his construction expertise with my operational skills. I currently live in Nairn with my husband, our two teenage sons, and my mother, whilst we build our own ‘forever home’ nearby.
While my husband manages construction, I project manage our jobs and oversee all operational aspects of the business, from client and supplier relations to marketing and Health & Safety compliance. Despite entering the industry without a construction background, I have developed a deep passion for it, continuously expanding my knowledge in construction management. I am a dedicated lifelong learner, currently pursuing Chartered Member status with the CIOB (MCIOB) to further cement my commitment to industry excellence.
I’m a strong supporter of women in construction and actively advocate for increased representation and equal opportunities within the industry. I am incredibly proud that the SJ Highland Construction team includes a talented young female apprentice joiner.
I look forward to meeting and connecting with likeminded professional women, to building relationships, and to actively participating in the business community.”
