Who walked off with those coveted PQ magazine trophies at the PQ magazine awards?

Proud Embankment was filled to the rafters for the 20th PQ magazine awards.

Accountants Jean-Paul Noel-Cephise and Libby Walklett stole the show as they truly showed ‘accountants have talent’. For one night only we had Elvis in the building, and Calamity Jane’s “It’s Harry I’m Planning to Marry”.

Throw in a fire eater (Shade) and the Seifert Sisters swinging above the crowd, then it can only be the PQ magazine awards! Check out the highlights video at https://tinyurl.com/yc4j4fum

So, who walked off with the coveted PQ magazine award trophies? PQ of the Year went to Evie Todd, of only2nerds Instagram fame. It was her drive to help others that really caught the judges’ eye.

NQ of the Year was Laurence De Ste Croix, who never let people tell him what he could achieve!

Student Body of the Year went to the Chartered Accountants Student Society of London (CASSL) and Accountancy Body of the Year was CIPFA.

ACCA picked up the Study Resource prize for My Exam Performance and the Best Use of Social Media award went to the Study Fun Group (Facebook Group), set up by two CIMA students.

The British Airways Graduate Scheme also picked up an award for its programme, and the first-ever Podcast of the Year award was given to Kieran Maguire and his Price of Football.
