PQ magazine award winners 2020

The Café de Paris was in full swing last night for the PQ magazine awards 2020.

Russian-British comedian Konstantin Kisin entertained the crowd, before editor Graham Hambly, with the help of the sponsors, revealed the night’s winners.

Our PQ of the Year, Bethany Duffy from Grant Thornton, sent a message to the audience from Australia, where she is on a holiday of a lifetime.

Accountancy Body of the Year went to the ACCA, who also picked up the Innovation in Accountancy award for its student wellbeing hub.

The Best Use of Social Media award went to LSBF TV ,and KPMG’s Emma Noble walked off with the Training Manager/Mentor award.

CIPFA member Ross Fraser won NQ of the Year, and our Apprentice of the Year was Charlie Atkins, who had been short listed in 2019 too.

Among the Editor award winners on the night were the AAT learning pods and Kaplan Financial’s single use plastic campaign.
