We are delighted to announce that Melissa Griffiths, Head of Sales and Ellie Clark, Head of Engagement have been shortlisted as finalists at this year’s Professional Adviser Women In Finance Awards in the Women of the Year – Platforms category. The gala dinner and celebrations will take place at the London Marriott Grosvenor Square Hotel on Wednesday 6th November 2024.
Professional Adviser is honored to host the 2024 Women in Financial Advice Awards, celebrating the accomplishments of women in the financial advice industry and the broader financial services field.
These awards are not about comparing genders or debating who is better suited for a career in financial services; they are solely focused on recognizing the achievements of women in a sector where they remain underrepresented.
Issues such as the gender pay gap, the scarcity of senior women in the field, and even women’s engagement with financial advice have been widely reported in Professional Adviser in recent years, highlighting the ongoing challenges. Encouragingly, this coverage signals an increasing recognition that these issues demand attention, while the overwhelming response to these awards in recent years suggests the profession is gradually evolving.
By showcasing the accomplishments of women in financial advice and financial services, and honoring individuals of any gender who support women’s potential and work toward a balanced, inclusive industry, the Women in Financial Advice Awards aim to inspire more women to join a dynamic sector that has yet to reach its full potential.
