Inspirational women in the pensions sector

The Women in Pensions Awards aim to shine a spotlight on the work of inspirational women in the pensions sector and highlight their remarkable achievements, along with celebrating the mentors and organizations supporting them.

The awards also aim to inspire further women to bring their skills and experience to the rewarding industry of pensions.

Having access to a broader pool of talent can help to create a more sustainable pensions industry for all, and encouraging the very highest level of gender diversity is a crucial step to accomplishing this.

Professional Pensions has had a truly amazing response, recording its highest number of award nominees to date.
