Best Business Women Awards 2019 Finalists announced

The Best Business Women Awards have announced their finalists for 2019. The business world is full of talented and dedicated female entrepreneurs who not only run successful businesses but, in many cases, also juggle the needs of their families. The Best Business Women Awards are designed to recognise the achievement of those women across a wide range of business categories from women across the UK.

Newcastle-based businesswoman Sophie Milliken from Smart Resourcing Solutions (SRS) has been shortlisted as a finalist in two categories – Best Business Woman in Recruitment and Best Customer Service. SRS is a multi award-winning graduate recruitment and employability consultancy.

Debbie Gilbert, organiser of The Best Business Women Awards said ‘This is the 5th year of these prestigious awards. We were delighted with the number of entries this year, which came in from all over the UK. This is a tough competition judged by business experts. To be a finalist is a major achievement. Finalists have been selected for their business acumen, determination, creativity and tenacity. Well over 80% of start-ups fail in the first 3 years and all our finalists are all shining examples of being successful entrepreneurs who have proved their success to our judges.’

Sophie Milliken, managing director at SRS said ‘I’m hugely proud to have been shortlisted in two categories at this year’s Best Business Women Awards. It has been a wonderful year for SRS and for me personally with the publication of my first book, From Learner To Earner, a recruitment insider’s guide for graduate job success and this recognition is the icing on the cake.’

The gala final of The Best Business Women Awards will be held on 11th October 2019 at The Tower Hotel in London when the winners will be announced.
