Ruth’s aviation journey began just 7 years ago with the initial set up of 2 foreign aviation companies in Malta at Director level after many years in her native Scotland within Oil and Gas recruitment.
In 2019 she founded Women in Aviation Malta her initial aim to share experiences and support other women in Malta, over the years WIAM has snowballed in to so much more, boasting over 600 online members with just over 200 active members, offering support, networking, mentoring and leaderships programmes, aiming to bridge the gender gap and address industry skills shortages. Now as she prepares to launch Women in Aviation Malta as a full time commercial concern the needs of the industry should be further served with a schools and college out reach programme, Pre and post relocation support to assure the retention of the skills so highly fought for here, executive placements and of course all the In person social networking, speaker events and facility tours and open days she can squeeze into WIAM’s busy calendar!
