Meet our 2024 Women in Credit Award finalists

Recognising excellence and championing the incredible work of women across the credit and financial services industry, we’re extremely proud to celebrate our 2024 Women in Credit Awards finalists. We’re committed to driving positive change across the industry and these awards provide a platform to encourage diversity, equity and inclusion even further.

Sharing the importance of empowering and supporting the inspirational work of women and allies, meet some of our very worthy finalists with a few words of inspiration for future women leaders.

Joanne Elliot, Personal Assistant: Colleague of the Year

“Recognition plays a fundamental role in cultivating an inclusive, empowered environment where employees of all backgrounds can unleash their potential and thrive. My advice to other women would be don’t limit yourself. Many women limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, you can achieve.”

Emily Birkinshaw, Sales Development Partner: Advocate of the Year

“Initiatives such as this provide an opportunity to not only showcase female talent but to recognise those who continue to drive forward this agenda and lead the way in creating a more diverse and inclusive space for us all to thrive in. They’re a necessary catalyst to keeping this conversation alive and enabling others to be a part of positive change.”

Caroline Hudgell, Senior Business Development Consultant: Team Player of the Year

“I think it’s really important that everyone is on an even playing field. Diversity and Inclusion initiatives are key for creating more focus here. If the opportunities for all are equal, the right people will naturally progress. Don’t be intimated or feel you have anything to prove as a woman. Just to be yourself, and believe in your own abilities.”
