Past Winners
The HFMA Awards programme has established itself as the key awards event for the NHS finance profession, recognising the vital contribution that finance staff play in the delivery of high quality, cost effective healthcare.
In recent years the Awards have showcased best practice in: preparing and producing the final accounts, financial management and governance. But in 2007 the programme has been expanded with five new Awards recognising individual and team performance in finance across the UK. The full portfolio of Awards now includes:
Accounts Team of the Year
Financial Management (PCT and Trust/Foundation Trust categories)
Governance
Finance Director of the Year
Foundation Trust of the Year
NHS Charity Reporting
Clinical Engagement
HFMA Jon Havelock Award
The HFMA is recognised as ‘The Voice of Healthcare Finance’. The Awards Ceremony at HFMA’s Annual Conference in December will be an opportunity for that voice to be heard celebrating the contribution and success of finance teams across the UK. Previous winners have commented on the positive experience of taking part, suggesting that the simple act of entering for the Awards can show staff how their role is valued. They also say that gaining national recognition for local efforts can be hugely motivating. Combine those benefits with the chance of winning, and receiving an Award at a Gala event in front of an audience of some 600 finance practitioners and industry experts, and you have a powerful argument for submitting an entry.
