Celebrating Excellence: Tees' Women in Finance Shortlisted for Top Awards

Three out of six leading ladies in our Wealth team who were nominated for awards have been shortlisted in the final of the Women In Financial Advice 2024 Awards.

This year, Tees Financial Limited had six women from our Wealth team nominated for the prestigious awards.

The nominees were as follows:

Cailin Lehmann, Financial Services Manager

Cara Lambert, Senior Wealth Planner

Emma Fisk, Senior Financial Planning Administrator

Laura Blyth, Wealth Planner

Megan Johns, Trainee Financial Adviser

Toni Chalmers-Smith, Wealth Specialist

Cailin, Laura and Toni have now been announced as being shortlisted to the finals.

This is the second time in a row that Laura Blyth has reached the final stages, whilst Toni Chalmers-Smith has been a finalist for four years in a row. Previously, Cara Lambert was shortlisted as a finalist for two years.

Additionally, Toni Chalmers-Smith has reached the finals for Later Life Adviser of the Year in The Women’s Recognition Awards 2024.

Toni Chalmers-Smith, said: “This is a great achievement for me to reach the finals of two separate awards, but more importantly, this is a big achievement for the team.

I think the nominated and shortlisted candidates are all brilliant. It really shows the high level of work the ladies in our team undertake and the high quality of that work, too.

I’m proud of us all, and fingers crossed for the win!”

The Later Life Adviser award will announce its winner on Tuesday, 22 October, whilst the award ceremony for the Women In Financial Advice will be held on Wednesday, 6 November, both in London. 

These awards are not about men versus women or whether a particular gender is more suited to a career or role in financial services - they are simply about celebrating and recognising the achievements of women in a sector where they continue to be under-represented.

Good luck to our wonderful women in finance!
