Among the many awards on offer is for Business Innovation, sponsored by MCP Solicitors.
The coronavirus crisis has forced many firms to find new ways of working.
This award celebrates new ideas, processes, products, services, technologies and applications that have had an impact on an organisation’s success.
Businesses can truly be judged by how they serves the people who come through its doors.
The Customer Care award recognises the organisation, irrespective of size or sector, that proves the customer really does come first.
If you know someone who always goes the extra mile for their customers, or their colleagues, then why not put them forward for the Employee of the Year award, sponsored by Mars.
The judges will also be looking for an outstanding contribution to colleagues’ welfare and enhancing the working environment, as well as the success of your organisation.
And if your boss is the tops, then nominate them for Businessperson of the Year, sponsored by Brown & Co.
