#1 Professional Development Hub for Early Career Women in Male-Dominated Industries

DOUBLE DOWN ON YOUR CAREER GROWTH AND MOMENTUM

ACCESS THE COLLECTIVE NOW

Brianna - 3 years in Industry

Site Engineer

Being in construction and being that minority, it's tricky to navigate. I had a lot of self-confidence issues: uncertainty in my role and in my position on the team. Being able to bounce the scenarios and anything that you're going through at the time with other women that are experiencing the same thing, that's really invaluable.

Shananther - 2 years in Industry

Sustainability Graduate

Trellis helped me become a successful woman, a more productive, efficient, and motivated worker. In particular I am able to use the tools that were work-shopped during the group sessions and draw on other people's experiences that were shared to be able to contribute my full value to my job and enjoy it more, which is great.

Tierney - 4 years in Industry

Project Manager

It allowed me to validate some of the feelings that I couldn't quite put a label on. Now I have not only a toolbox of skills and techniques to draw upon, but also a support system of people who, if I do need that extra advice or sounding board, that those people are there as well. 

The Collective is here to reshape your world of work. 

 

The Collective has been developed exclusively for early-career women navigating male-dominated industries: think construction, mining, energy, infrastructure, transport, tech and more.

Women who have worked hard to earn their place in the workforce, but now are juggling unclear expectations, limited support, and workplace dynamics that weren’t built with them in mind.

That’s where we come in.

The Collective combines expert-led live support and self-paced development so you can build confidence, find your voice, and fast-track your career on your terms.

Access our Collective LITE to develop practical strategies at your own pace, or The Collective to help you solve problems in real time through connection with both industry experts and peers, and know that you’re backed every step of the way.

Here’s what happens when you’re backed by the right tools, support, and people at the right time.

INCREASED CONFIDENCE

In how you speak, lead and show up.

CAREER PROGRESSION

Based on purpose, not just performance.

REDUCED ISOLATION

Connection with women who truly 'get it'.

INFLUENCE & IMPACT

In your team, industry and organisation.

WORK/LIFE BALANCE

That works for the life you're creating - on your terms.

Drum Roll Please...

 

Charlotte

Graduate Civil Engineer

I think it’s really helpful that Trellis is so targeted for early career women, because every time you talk to anyone, they are generally going through very similar things to you or they can give you relevant advice. 

Elise

Junior Cost Controller

I was rapidly losing connection with my job, feeling out of my depth and maybe didn't belong. I was purposely looking for some kind of structure to help me navigate this. Thanks to the work I’ve done with Trellis, I now feel empowered to know what I need and get it.

Jessica

Site Engineer

Trellis not only teaches women how to advocate for themselves in a male-dominated field, but it shifts your own mindset. It sets you up for your future career, equips you with the tools for performance reviews, conflicts, and managing upwards.

Meet Tanya Andrews: Your Career, Confidence, and Gender Equality Expert

 
At the helm of The Collective is Tanya Andrews, a dynamic coach with a lifetime of experience navigating and thriving in male-dominated spaces. Growing up on construction sites with her civil engineer father, Tanya had early exposure to environments with reduced access for women. 
 
For the past ten years, Tanya has dedicated her working (and much of her personal life) to advocating for women’s growth and success. Through her social enterprise, Girl Shaped Flames, she’s empowered over 5,000 high school girls to build confidence, resilience, and leadership skills.  Through her not-for-profit, UNIQ You, she’s connecting thousands of young women with female industry role models, significantly increasing the number who pursue careers in male-dominated fields.
 
Now, she’s turned her attention to early-career women: the backbone of a robust pipeline of female talent in industries in dire need of diverse representation.  
 
Tanya’s passion is helping you turn obstacles into opportunities, using tailored strategies and real-world insights to help you thrive. With Tanya as your guide, you’re not just gaining a coach, you’re gaining a mentor who’s walked the path and is dedicated to helping you carve your own.
