This is only the second time that Credit Today has run these awards, aimed specifically at the personal and corporate insolvency and rescue sectors. The awards aim to honour the industry's high achievers, and celebrate best practice and the raising of standards across the entire rescue industry.
Commenting on her shortlist for the award, Bev said:
“It’s a great to see that the fantastic work we are doing at The Debt Advisor has been recognised for the second year running - this nomination is a real achievement in itself. All the heavyweights from the insolvency and rescue world will be in attendance; Delloite, KPMG, PwC, so we’ll certainly have some tough competition!
“The nomination in the personal insolvency category is testament to the incredible effort that my team and I have put in over the last few years. We won the award last year and, since then, have been tenacious in our crusade to promote an innovative approach to personal insolvency whilst continually aiding the rescue process.
“We have managed to establish ourselves as a major, ethical player within the debt management industry through our commitment to fully understanding the root cause of the debt problem and helping our customers through it.
“We are all looking forward to the awards evening and are keeping our fingers crossed!”
