Supporting Women in Property: Proven and Rowe Group Reflect on International Women’s Day

Members of the Proven and Rowe Group teams attended the Property Council WA Women in Property Signature Lunch to mark International Women’s Day, reflecting on leadership, inclusion and the importance of supporting women across the property industry.

Sunday 8 March marked International Women’s Day, and earlier that week members of the Proven Project Management and Rowe Group teams joined colleagues from across the industry at the Women in Property Signature Lunch hosted by the Property Council of Australia.

It was a great opportunity to hear from inspiring speakers including Daisy Pearce, whose reflections on leadership, resilience and forging new paths resonated well beyond sport.

Events like this are a reminder that progress in our industry comes not only from conversation, but from the everyday actions that support women to build long and rewarding careers.

Across Proven and Rowe Group, nearly half our team (47%) are women, working across planning, urban design, project delivery and administration, including in key leadership roles. We’re proud to support women across the business through practical initiatives that help balance career growth with life outside the office, including:

  • Paid parental leave top-up and supportive parental leave policies
  • Flexible return-to-work arrangements
  • Encouragement and opportunities to participate in industry committees and professional development programs

This support is also reflected through the team’s representation on leading industry committees, from Lena and Alyssa with the Emerging Planners Committee, to Robyn serving on the UDIA Outlook Committee, and participation in industry mentoring programs.

It was great to see the diversity in the room, with a mix of genders attending the event together and taking part in the broader conversation around strengthening the growth and representation of women in the property industry.

Thank you to the Property Council WA for hosting another great event and continuing to champion these important discussions.
