Jo Sainsbury is no stranger to wearing high-vis workwear, getting down and dirty in the grease and coal dust. Jo Sainsbury has over 30 years’ experience in Administration, HR, WH&S and Project Management within the Heavy Equipment, Earthmoving and Rail Industries. Jo hit the track running so to speak 7 years’ ago and now works as a Coal Train Driver.

Jo is a big believer in inclusion and diversity and believes more women should consider these non-traditional roles and careers as there are a lot of great benefits. This isn't just about securing a well-paying future but it's also about personal fulfilment and accomplishment.

Jo has recently become a published author and advocate within the Rail, Resources & Construction Industries. She is passionate about encouraging women of all ages to unleash the full force of their potential, achieve greater levels of self sufficiency and fulfilment and create a more sustainable way of working, in particular within Non-Traditional Roles in these industries. She is all about finding an appreciation for the world of possibilities that await when you’re prepared to throw aside self-imposed limitations.

Jo encourages women of all ages to lift up their feet and kick off their heels, find their kickass attitude and get their Glo On and become a Glo Getter. “Everyone is capable of doing the job – what are you waiting for Get Your Glo On” she shouts out!
