BG&E’s Emergency and Disaster Recovery team discusses what rapid response really means in practice, how eligibility and value-for-money requirements shape recovery programs, and why this work is so different from a traditio...

How do you design and deliver 19 bridges for a $2.6 billion airport gateway, keep a live corridor operating, and introduce Australia’s first incrementally launched network arch bridge in the process?   In Gateway Files, host Laura Miranda sits down with Daniel Fryirs, Joe Turner, and Luke Wetherstone to reflect on the bridge program behind Sydney Gateway – from early concepts and construction stra...

This episode of Inside BG&E follows two graduates, Hugo Groot and Rebecca Ninan, as they reflect on stepping from university into their first roles at BG&E. Rather than focusing on the technical details, the conversation explores how they found their feet, the kind of work they have been exposed to, and what they have learned about themselves in the process. Listeners will get an honest, e...
