Inspiring Career Pathways: St Mark’s Partners with UNIQ You and Rio Tinto

St Mark’s is proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with UNIQ You and their Accelerate Educator Program. This partnership will further strengthen our Career Curiosity Series (CCS) and provide students with invaluable industry insights. This partnership was officially launched with our inaugural Lunch Session featuring representatives from Rio Tinto, marking a significant milestone as the first UNIQ You session held in Western Australia.

UNIQ You is dedicated to connecting high school students with women in STEM-related industries, while Rio Tinto is committed to increasing female representation in the mining sector. By bringing these two forces together, we are providing students with invaluable insights into diverse career pathways and fostering greater career curiosity among our future leaders.

During our first Lunch Session, students had the opportunity to speak directly with Angela Gu, a Specialist in Productivity Analysis at Rio Tinto. Angela shared her experiences in the mining industry, offering real-world insights into her role and inspiring students to explore careers they may not have previously considered.

We are thrilled about the impact this partnership will have on our students’ aspirations and look forward to hosting more interactive sessions that showcase a wide range of industries and opportunities.

Stay tuned for the next CCS lunchtime event in collaboration with UNIQ You, as well as our Career Curiosity Breakfast Series, where students will continue to gain valuable career insights.
