The winner of the Vero-sponsored 2023 Young Broker of the Year award will receive the Warren Tickle Trophy.
The 2022 Young Broker of the Year award winner William Thompson, from Maroochydore’s Thompson Insurance, said that “until you take part, you don’t realise just how fulfilling it can be, irrespective of the outcome.”
“I remember the day I got my client testimonials; I had asked them to write a few words about me, but I got pages of feedback about how they valued and trusted the advice they got from me and our firm. It was one of those moments that makes your hair stand up.
“It certainly makes you reflect on what you do, day in and day out, and I felt like a winner at many stages throughout the process.”
It only takes a few minutes to nominate a high achiever and submit their name for this prestigious award. So, make sure that you submit your nomination at niba.com.au/awards by Tuesday 28 February 2023.
