WOMEN in Property (WiP) has announced Danielle Miller as the organisation’s new Central Scotland branch chair for 2026-27.
Danielle, who is associate director for stakeholder engagement at Built Environment – Smarter Transformation (BE-ST), will take the role from March 2026 until February 2027. She has been on the Central Scotland committee for four years.
“I am delighted to be appointed as branch chair and it is a real honour to lead such an empowering organisation,” Danielle commented. “The Central Scotland committee will continue to champion improved gender parity across the built environment sector, while working towards a more inclusive and supportive industry.
“This year, we will place a particular focus on male allies. This is not about making male colleagues feel uncomfortable; it is about helping them to better understand, support, and actively participate in improving gender balance across the sector.
“Our committee in Scotland is formed entirely of member volunteers from across the industry, who give their time and energy to support Women in Property’s core initiatives, including Schools Outreach, Inclusion and our Mentoring programme. We have a fantastic, multi-disciplinary network, which is a real USP for Women in Property and provides a valuable opportunity to promote cross-fertilisation of ideas through our CPD-accredited events and networking programme.”
Stephen Good, CEO at BE-ST, added, “We are incredibly proud to see Danielle appointed as Central Scotland Branch Chair for Women in Property. Her passion for collaboration, inclusion and positive change across the built environment aligns strongly with BE-ST’s vision. Danielle is a natural leader and a brilliant advocate for driving meaningful transformation across the sector, and we fully support her in this role.”
Supporting Danielle in her new role will be vice chair, Claire Cockburn, senior architect at Purcell, and Rebecca Stuart, regional business generation manager at Turner & Townsend, who will take on the role of junior vice chair.
