Team of the Year – again! Provantage celebrates double success at the Rainmakers Awards
Another year, another reason to celebrate!
Provantage Corporate Finance is delighted to have taken home two awards at this year’s East Midlands Rainmakers Awards, once again being named Corporate Finance Advisory Team of the Year, as well as our very own Andy Shepherd winning Rising Star of the Year
Gaining the Corporate Finance Advisory Team of the Year title is a fantastic achievement and recognition of the experience, commitment and collaborative approach that sit at the heart of Provantage. It’s a testament to the hard work of our entire team, the relationships we build and the results we deliver for our clients
There was also a brilliant individual success for Andy Shepherd, who was named Rising Star of the Year. The award recognises his talent, dedication and growing contribution to Provantage and the wider corporate finance community. We’re incredibly proud to see his hard work recognised
To win Team of the Year once again, while also celebrating an individual award for one of our own, made this year’s event particularly special and we were so glad to share it with one of our colleagues from our international association 7oceans who is currently on secondment from Italy. 7oceans provides international reach helping us to deliver exceptional outcome for clients.
Sally Saunders commented “What a fantastic result for Provantage. I’m immensely proud of the exceptional team we have and the enthusiasm and charisma they bring with them everyday. We’ve had a brilliant year, completing some really impressive transactions, several of which were recognised in this year’s awards, so being named Corporate Finance Advisory Team of the Year once again is something I’m particularly proud of
And the biggest congratulations to Andy Shepherd. He is a real star and thoroughly deserves this recognition. It’s been fantastic to see what he has achieved, and I’m delighted that the wider corporate finance community has recognised that too”
Andy Shepherd added “It’s an incredible feeling to have been voted for by my peers, particularly when considering the strength and depth of the shortlisted nominees. I’m honoured to be a part of the East Midlands advisory community that continues to support outstanding local businesses. I’m equally proud to be part of the Provantage team who once again were recognised as Corporate Finance Team of the year”
A huge thank you to everyone who voted for us and to our clients, professional contacts and colleagues for their continued support. Congratulations to all the winners and nominees – and to the team at TheBusinessDesk.com for another fantastic evening celebrating the East Midlands business community
