MAGIC CIRCLE AWARDS 2017

We are delighted to announce that Paula Steele our Managing Partner has been shortlisted in the Magic Circle Awards 2017 as Entrepreneurial Individual of the Year.
The Magic Circle Awards are held annually to find the best advisors and managers in the global industry. Entries can either be by nomination from the global industry or companies can also send in detailed submissions. All entries for each category are then shortlisted as finalists by a judging panel featuring ten global industry experts. All voting is done online, which opens once the finalists have been announced.
“I am delighted and honoured to have been nominated for this award and to have made the shortlist alongside a number of esteemed industry colleagues.” Says Paula Steele of her achievement. “It’s great when your work is recognised and acknowledged by your industry and peers as having achieved a level of distinction.”
Each award is partially determined by the number of public votes received for the nominees (contributing one extra judge in the decision-making process) and so, if you think that Paula deserves to win, we’d love your help. You can vote here and please bear in mind that voting closes on 21st April 2017.
The John Lamb Team has won over 15 top industry awards in the past five years and we are delighted with this further recognition.
