I haven't counted but I'm going to guess that this year's nominations are at least double last year's. Thanks to all of the sponsors for encouraging their customers to nominate. My first impression is the Queensland has the most nominations. Whether your nominee is one of our 10 winners announced at the Women in Collision Seminar and Awards in Sydney on 24 Feburary or not, the important thing is that her hard work and contribution to the business has been recognised. Here are this year's nominees. If you have nominated someone and don't see their name here then send an email to samstreet@yaffa.com.au
The nominations have now closed for 2021.
