Apprentice of the Year winner

Congratulations to Kimberly Hepburn AssocRICS from Transport for London for winning this year's Apprentice of the Year award.

A driven, passionate and resilient individual who has immersed herself in the opportunity of gaining authentic experience through her apprenticeship. 

Her manager commended her commercial management of complex interfaces between the firm, main contractor and high-profile third parties commenting “Kimberly has performed exceptionally well, consistently exceeding expectations, adding great value to the team and contributing to the success of the project.

Kimberly’s ambitious attitude led her to become AssocRICS qualified within two years and she has spoken at several high-profile surveying events including at a reception with the Deputy Prime Minister and the RICS Diversity and Inclusion conference.

Kimberly is passionate about surveying apprenticeships and has challenged the status quo by bravely choosing an apprenticeship over university as the best route for her to kick-start her career in construction.  Her bold, active and open nature has led her to encourage industry leaders to reflect on the value of the norms in their recruitment. 

Kimberly’s aspiration and determination to make surveying a profession known and valued by everyone; in partnership with her outstanding achievements within the workplace has made her the perfect first ever winner of this award.
