Last month, Sotera Fire Engineering had the pleasure of welcoming Poppy to our Brisbane office. Poppy, a high school student with a budding passion for fire engineering, joined us for a week of work experience, gaining valuable insight into how our team designs performance-based fire safety solutions to protect buildings and communities.
At Sotera, we believe in investing in the future of engineering by nurturing young talent and sharing our knowledge with those eager to explore the field. Work experience placements like Poppy’s give students a unique opportunity to see how theory meets practice—sparking curiosity, building confidence, and offering a first glimpse into a career that truly makes a difference.
Our commitment goes beyond just providing exposure—we strive to offer meaningful, hands-on experiences that empower students to see themselves as innovators, problem-solvers, and future leaders in fire safety engineering.
By supporting programs like this, we’re not only giving back to our community—we’re helping shape a safer, more resilient future.
Here’s to inspiring the next generation—one curious mind at a time.
