The Adviser is calling on the broking industry to submit an entry or nominate a worthy colleague for one (or several) of the 20+ individual and group categories by Tuesday, 24 October 2023 for a chance to be recognised.

The Better Business Awards are the benchmark program for championing excellence in the broking industry and provides a platform for top-performing brokers and offices to celebrate their achievements and network with industry leaders.

They shine a light on the hard work and successes of Australian brokers, brokerages, aggregators, loan administrators, lender business development managers (BDM), offices, mentors, innovators, and leaders, and their dedication to acting in their clients’ best interests while writing high volumes.

These awards underscore the importance of brokers building a local presence and servicing clients in their immediate catchment area with skill, and holding their hands during challenging periods.

They are open to all businesses operating in Australia supporting the broking industry and are a desirable accolade for both individuals and businesses seeking to forge their role in broking.

Winning an award could elevate you above your competitors while celebrating the industry as a champion of customer service.

The awards also highlight the pinnacle of innovation and success in broking, while finalists and winners could reaffirm their position as leaders for years to come.

With a judging panel including senior finance leaders, business executives, entrepreneurs, and innovators, a Better Business Award is a peer-reviewed recognition of your capabilities and passion for propelling the industry forward.

Commenting on their partnership with the awards, NAB Broker Distribution executive Adam Brown said: “In an environment where relationships are more important than ever, brokers are sharpening their skills and elevating the way they manage their clients.

“The Better Business Awards continues to stand out as an important program that provides recognition for top-performing brokers. We’re proud to be the bank behind the broker, and with 11 years as the principal partner of this series, we’ve enjoyed seeing newcomers to the industry turn into seasoned professionals.”

He concluded: “Together, the broking industry continues to shine and provide an invaluable service to Australian homeowners and investors.”
