The Early Career Group Committee are responsible for organising events and courses aimed specifically at young professionals in the geotechnical engineering industry. The ECG are also responsible for arranging competitions and reporting to the BGA Executive Committee on matters affecting ECG members.
To get involved or to find out more about the ECG committee contact bga-ecg@britishgeotech.org.uk. We hold meetings monthly to plan our events and activities. The key committee roles are typically refreshed in September/October every other year through an informal election process. However, members can still get involved on the committee at any time of the year.
For more information about the upcoming elections (2023-2025 term):
Details about the committee roles can be accessed via the committee roles document or the associated powerpoint.
The current committee will be stepping down later this year. If you are interested in getting involved, we are looking for members to join the next ECG Committee in our London, South West and North hubs. Please contact bga-ecg@britishgeotech.org.uk to express interest.
