RISING STAR AWARD’S CEREMONY

WeAreTheCity are delighted to invite you to our Rising Star award’s ceremony.

Now in their fifth year, the Rising Star Awards are the first to focus on the achievements of women below Senior Management or Director level – representing the female talent pipeline and the next generation of future leaders.

The awards also recognise the efforts of senior leaders who are championing gender equality, as well as putting the spotlight on a “company of the year” that is actively supporting its female talent pipeline above and beyond industry norms.

We are delighted to invite you to celebrate the achievements of these remarkable women who are not only role models for their industries, but who are our future leaders of tomorrow. We do hope you can join us to celebrate their success and toast their achievements.

PAYING IT FORWARD

As an organisation, WeAreTheCity are passionate about paying it forward and helping women in challenging circumstances to succeed.

We are very honoured to be working with our charity partner, the Young Women’s Trust for this year’s awards. The Young Women’s Trust supports young women aged 18-30, especially those struggling to live on low or no pay, to get into work that is right for them.

There will be the opportunity to support the charity and their work. There are some wonderful prizes to be won and all proceeds will go towards providing coaching for the charity’s community.
