International Women's Day 2021

In honour of International Women's Day 2021, we've created a collection of stories from just some of the inspirational women at BASF ANZ who #ChooseToChallenge in their own way. 

Rach Carson
Rach Carson, BASF National Commercial Manager Agriculture, shares stories from her career journey and the key role mentoring has played in her development.
Jane Mansary
Chemical engineer. Fashionista. Community worker. There's a lot to explore when it comes to getting to know Jane Mansaray.
Lynley Crawford 
Lynley Crawford spends most days advising customers on which BASF performance material best suits their project, and most nights skating in circles around an industrial estate. As a Technical Manager by day and a pro inline speed skater by night, every day for Lynley is different. 
Elizabeth 'Betsy' Kemp
As a child Elizabeth Kemp loved nothing more than watching her two heroes restore old cars: the first was her father and the second Chip Foose from the tv show ‘Overhaulin’.  Now working as a Technical Services Representative (TSR) for BASF, we spoke to Betsy about her career journey. 
Anna Anderson 
On most days you can find Anna Anderson, Territory Manager for Crop Protection, driving around the North Island of New Zealand visiting resellers and farmers.  Find out about Anna's life on the road.
Riahna Kolatowicz
At this year’s Diggers and Dealers conference Riahna Kolatowicz was keen to talk about more than just flocculants and dewatering aids. Here Riahna, BASF Senior Technical Sales Manager and D+I Council member, shares why she loves talking to customers about D+I. 
Edwina Gadsby
Following a secondment in New Zealand, we caught up with Edwina Gadsby to chat about her career with BASF, her exciting new role and advice for young people who are about to start their career.
Tara Haskell
If you think a career in sales involves long lunches, a day with Tara Haskell, will pretty quickly set the record straight. Forget games of golf, when it comes to winning new clients in Tara’s line of work, customers only want one thing: proof, and lots of it. 
Hannah Thomas
Hannah Thomas works in BASF's Agricultural Solutions department as a Melon & Watermelon Sales Specialist. Here Hannah shares what led her to persue a career in agriculture.
