Manchester’s Finest Young Talent Need You

JCI Manchester, leading networking group for young professionals, is calling for Manchester to celebrate the best talent in the region.

The Manchester Young Talent Awards, hosted by the group, are back for a sixth year and give the region the chance to nominate the finest young talent across creative and digital, finance, legal, property, recruitment and of course the celebration of entrepreneurial flair and rising stars.

Nominations are now open, as of 27th May 2015 and aim to recognise up to ten outstanding individuals between the ages of 18 and 39 who exemplify the best attributes of Manchester’s young people. JCI Manchester will present the Young Talent Awards for 2015 at a packed Awards Dinner on 19th November at the Imperial War Museum Manchester.

The ceremony will highlight each winner’s career so far and provide a stage from which the winners can challenge and inspire young people in Manchester. Winners will be selected by a panel of independent judges whom are respected members of the Manchester business/professional community.

JCI Manchester 2015 President, Kim Holden said

’We are incredibly proud of showcasing Manchester’s finest young talent. JCI turns 100 years old this year so the awards will be the biggest and best yet. We know Manchester is an incredible place to live and work and the MYTAs are an opportunity to showcase that. This will be the 6th year of the awards and no doubt the talent will be better than ever.

The Manchester Young Talent Awards will celebrate the achievements of the rising stars of the city and show why Manchester is a northern powerhouse to be reckoned with. Over the years JCI Manchester has celebrated the talent of many recognisable business figures and all nominations come straight from the people closest to the stars. Get behind your young talent Manchester and send your nominations for the professionals you want to recognise!“

Nominations for the awards are now open and the deadline for entries is the 1st September with the shortlist being announced shortly afterwards.
