Who will be your winners at the Scottish mortgage industry's biggest night of the year?
It’s been two, long years… but The Scottish Mortgage Summit & Awards are back for 2024, bigger and better than ever before – with nominations now open!
Sponsored by Mortgage Introducer and our sister brand, KM Business Information, this highly respected event will return on Thursday May 30, at the prestigious Sheraton Grand Hotel in Edinburgh.
It will recognise the vital service that the Scottish mortgage industry provides to its country, positively affecting the lives of those who own homes – and those who want to do so.
More than 20 categories will highlight the brightest and the best of the profession, including coveted titles such as Best Overall Broker in Scotland, Broker of the Year (Regional), BDM of the Year, Protection Provider of the Year, Later Life Lender of the Year, New Brokerage of the Year and the renowned Lifetime Achievement Award. You can nominate yourself, your colleagues, or your organisation, in as many categories as you wish.
The awards are a wonderful opportunity to gather with colleagues in a fabulous setting, and celebrate those for whom exceptional dedication and service are integral to their day-to-day roles, but it is also a superb chance to strengthen professional ties still further through a new, highly involving element – a dedicated summit to consider the pressing issues facing the industry today. The full agenda for this fascinating discussion will be revealed in March.
"The Scottish Mortgage Summit Awards have long been a highlight in our calendar at Mortgage Introducer, and it's great to see them return," said Paul Lucas, global editor. "We hear so often about how London-centric so many publications are - we want to truly reach the regions and Scotland is very much at the top of our agenda.
"There are so many talented professionals across the country that are thoroughly deserving of recognition. The entire Mortgage Introducer team looks forward to being on-hand for the big event and to celebrate with you all."
Malleny Mortgage Solutions, based in Edinburgh, understands how transformative winning an industry accolade of this calibre can be. Named as Broker Firm of the Year (Up to 10 Advisers) at last year’s Mortgage Introducer Awards, it has enjoyed greater recognition thanks to the accolade.
“This award certainly helped boost our profile, particularly locally and especially amongst property and finance professionals in Scotland,” said Gregor McMeechan (pictured below), who is mortgage and protection consultant / managing director.
“It was lovely for the team to get the recognition from our peers. We also didn’t expect to win given the very high quality of the other finalists, so we were absolutely delighted to find out that we had won.”
To mark their success, the team at Malleny Mortgage Solutions enjoyed a “cheeky wee celebration”, as McMeechan put it. And he was unequivocal in his advice for anyone else thinking of putting themselves forward for an award. “Do it!” he emphasised.
