Mission Statement
The Young Pipeline Professionals Europe (YPPE) is a group of highly motivated young professionals working within the pipeline industry with the aim of knowledge sharing to ensure the longevity of the industry, addressing the industry’s skill shortage and foster relationships.
YPPE was founded in 2018 (by Cindy Dirkx of the Dutch Young Pipeliner group and Michelle Unger of ROSEN) to connect both new and experienced professionals working within the pipeline industry across the continent. We are a group of approximately more than 200 young pipeline professionals with a vested interest in advancing the pipeline industry to a safe and sustainable future. We aim to grow this number through educational, social and networking events, while connecting young professionals with pipeline experts throughout Europe.
YPPE is the umbrella for the individual entities of:
- YPP Netherlands: Cindy Dirkx (founding member), Rahul Raghukumar (Netherlands Chapter Lead)
- YPP UK: Andres Gonzalez (founding member), Daniel Molyneux (founding member and Aberdeen Chapter Lead), Marguerite Forde (Newcastle Chapter Lead), Koshy Solomon (South of England Chapter Lead)
- YPP France: Manon Servais (France Chapter Lead)
- YPP Germany: Currently no Chapter Leader for Germany
- YPP Italy: Marco Marino (Italy Chapter Lead)
New Organisation Structure
YPPE is coming to the end of the first term for the current committee, and with 2021 creeping up on us we are planning for the future. We have new exciting plans for a new structure for the group and we are looking for motivated young professionals working in the industry to join us, as we head into this new period of YPPE!
