    Member of the Board for Human Resources at Bentley Dr. Karen Lange expressed the importance of the mentorship program. 

    “Women remain under-represented in many key areas of our business, so with International Women’s Day approaching, it has been a great opportunity to focus on how we can lift the lid on the incredible range of careers we have to offer and encourage more women into the industry — as well as ensuring we support those who are already working with us," Lange said.
