Lochner Celebrating International Women’s Day

Today is International Women’s Day, a day to celebrate women and their significant contributions to our society and around the world.

In honor of this day, we would like to recognize our talented staff and leadership in our Pittsburgh, PA office who were recently awarded WTS Pittsburgh Chapter’s Employer of the Year! Office Manager Jane-Ann Patton said, “This award is a reflection of all our staff and the collaboration and respect they show each other daily. We are honored to receive this recognition.”

As Office Manager and Senior Project Manager, Jane is leading the way on Lochner’s recent growth within the area and state. With more than 30 years of experience in the transportation industry, Jane is a strong advocate for women and long-time supporter of WTS as a charter member of the WTS Pittsburgh Chapter. “I am pleased to see progress happening for women in our industry and remain eager to support other women in their personal and professional growth.”

With several Lochner employees involved with their local WTS chapters across the United States, Lochner is proud to be committed to advancing women in the transportation industry as an Advocate Sponsor of @WTS International. As an Advocate Partner, Lochner will be sponsoring and attending the WTS International Annual Conference: The Great Intersection, May 8-13 in Atlanta, GA. The conference will offer networking opportunities designed to elevate professional and career development for professionals and their firms. We hope to see new and familiar faces there!
