Nominations for MCA’s Hospitality Awards may have now closed for most categories - but there are still three special awards open for company submissions.

For these judged categories, we are looking to hear the untold stories from your business – the rising stars, the sustainability initiatives, and what you’re doing to cultivate diversity within your senior team.

MCA will choose finalists from the submissions, and in January and February panels of judges will decide the winners for each of these to be announced at the awards dinner on 13 March.

All we ask is for you to send a 250-word submissions to Alan Totten and Finn Scott-Delany by close of play on 3 December.

Rising Star Award

This award goes to an outstanding individual in a multi-site management team (e.g., an HR, FD, operations/site manager) who is rising through the ranks and is a star of the business.

The panel of judges will be looking for evidence of impact on the business from responsibilities taken on ‘beyond the day job’.

The Rising Star award is partnered by Red Bull

Diversity Leadership Programme

This award recognises the business which has done the most to demonstrate its commitment to promoting and supporting employees from under-represented and minority backgrounds on their journey from the front line to the boardroom. Tell us about your outstanding programme, for the chance to win.

The Diversity Leadership category is partnered by Britvic

Sustainability Award

This award goes to a company or brand that has gone above and beyond in demonstrating its commitment to reducing its impact on the environment.

A winner will be chosen by a panel of expert judges.

The Sustainability Award is partnered by Pernod Ricard

The awards take place at The Guildhall on 13 March. For information and to book tickets click here
