Jemma McNicholas, Marketing Executive at Owlett-Jaton, has been nominated as one of the Top 100 Young Achievers by national trade body, BMF.
National trade body The Builders Merchants Federation (BMF) and Builders’ Merchants News (BMN), have joined forces to identify the Top 100 Young Achievers across the multi-billion-pound building materials sector, and shine a light on the brightest stars of the future.
Jemma has been nominated for the accolade based around her achievements within her career so far and having a positive impact in the sector.
She said: "I am delighted to have been recognised for how my work at Owlett-Jaton has helped to strengthen our relationship with builders' merchants over the years.
“It is a pleasure being part of such a thriving and exciting industry."
The Top 100 Young Achievers programme follows last year’s Top 100 Merchant Influencer and Top 100 Supplier Influencers in 2022 and 2023.
John Newcomb, Chief Executive of the BMF, said: “The BMF is an active supporter of young people working within the building materials supply sector and this initiative celebrates the contributions of those who will carry the industry forward in the future and work to make a material difference.
“After the success of our previous initiatives, we’re delighted to be partnering with BMN to highlight the achievements of the Top 100 Young Achievers.
“This accolade reflects the positive influence Jemma has had on the people around them and on the wider building materials industry.”
The Top 100 Young Achievers will feature in a commemorative brochure and be invited to a Gala Dinner celebration and networking event at the Belfry in May.
The BMF represents more than 870 merchant and supplier companies that collectively employ more than 230,000 people in the building materials industry, performing an essential national function in distributing construction materials and home improvement products across the UK.
