Nominations open for everywoman awards

Nominations are now open for the 2020 everywoman in Transport & Logistics Awards.

The awards celebrate the crucial positions women hold in transport and logistics, and aim to create role models and reshape perception that transport and logistics is only for men.

The awards will recognise two winners per category; one successful industry ‘Leader’ and one individual at any stage in their career who is going ‘Above and Beyond’ for the business they work for.

Maxine Benson MBE, co-founder of everywoman, said: “Every year, we look forward to shining a spotlight on some of the most exceptional women whose achievements will inspire the future generation in motivating them to consider an industry they might not otherwise have. Women working in the transport and logistics industry is increasingly seen as natural and normal; the focus should be shifted to enabling women to progress within these industries, especially in senior management roles.”

The 2020 awards categories are: The Freight Award; The Customer/Passenger Award; The Infrastructure Award; The Supply Chain Award; The Warehousing Award; Industry Champion Award; Male Agent of Change; Apprentice of the Year Award; International Inspiration Award.

Nominations close on 10 February and the winners will be announced at an awards ceremony in London on 18 June 2020.
