International Women’s Day

17/03/2026

In this special International Women’s Day episode of Infra A Penny, three women from SIMCo come together to share reflections on building a career in infrastructure finance. From early opportunities and rapid responsibility to the realities of working in a small, high-performing team, the conversation explores what progression really looks like and how support, visibility, and culture can shape that journey.

The episode dives into this year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” unpacking how generosity of time, support and knowledge plays a critical role in both individual growth and collective success. Through personal stories, the team reflects on the importance of advocating for others, learning from those around you, and building confidence by stepping outside your comfort zone.

Along the way, they touch on the unique advantages of working in a smaller firm, the value of male allyship in a traditionally male-dominated industry, and the lessons that have shaped their careers so far.

Whether you’re early in your career or simply interested in how different factors come together to drive progression, this episode offers a thoughtful and relatable perspective on what it means to grow (and help others grow) in today’s workplace.
