Jordan commented:
“Reaching the finals of this prestigious award for the second time is more than I could ever have hoped for. I would like to thank Aspire Blaenau Gwent who gave me the Apprenticeship opportunity at Blaenau Gwent CBC, my work colleagues and tutors at Coleg y Cymoedd. My ambition is to be become a Chartered Accountant and reaching the finals again feels like another step closer in achieving my dream.â€
Joanne, Business Partner Finance Team Leader, with her team of seven staff have also reached the final against some very accomplished competition. Finalists in this category include Markes International Limited, FEI Foods Limited, Vista Retail Support plus other established financial teams.
Joanne said:
“I am delighted that my team has been shortlisted for such a prestigious award. We have worked hard over the past year to maintain the highest standards possible. To be recognised at this level is testament to the dedication & professionalism of the team and shows we are able to compete with the best in Wales.â€
Congratulations to both finalists from Blaenau Gwent Council and all the very best for the awards night.
