What the winners say

"Entering and winning the IMG’s Young Marketer of the Year award provided me with an invaluable opportunity to connect with some of the most talented and like-minded marketing professionals in the insurance industry. Attending the EDII course as part of that has also been great, equipping me with valuable techniques, tools and skills that will help further propel my career. The whole experience has been incredibly rewarding and I would encourage anyone looking to grow their marketing career to enter."

Louisa Dewey Optio Group

“I would strongly encourage marketers in all roles to take part in this year’s IMG Awards. For me, being named Young Marketer of the Year by The Insurance Marketers Group in 2021 was and still is a tremendous honour. And EDII’s Digital Minds has given me access and exposure to– a quality network of supportive coaches, and fellow business practitioners, frameworks and toolkits to structure innovation problems and solve them. Thank you IMG and EDII for helping me advance and excel in my career.”

Linh Nguyen Liberty Mutual Insurance

“Being shortlisted in the IMG awards, and joining the EDII Digital Minds programme, have given me much more confidence in my abilities. In 2021, I was quite new to Markel, and the industry, and I was worried my hard work wouldn’t be noticed during lockdown. The recognition I received during and after the IMG awards opened up opportunities for me to contribute to industry thought-leadership articles and I was featured in a book on the power of social media for B2B businesses. There’s no way I would have considered the opportunity to contribute to things like this without the confidence boost this recognition has given me.”

Jessica Williams Markel UK

"I was thrilled to become a finalist in the IMG’s Young Marketer of the Year Award as it’s the first award I’ve been nominated for within marketing and my career. It’s reassuring that marketers are now getting the recognition within the industry of what we bring to the market and will give future generations an award to strive for!"
