The awards, run by the Institute of Directors (IoD) and open to members and non-members, are sponsored by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and bring together company directors from a variety of backgrounds, recognising their qualities as business leaders.
Tim Jones, said: “I was so surprised and honoured to win this award from the IoD. I founded the business 25 years ago with my late wife Robyn, who sadly passed away last September, and this award is as much for her as for me.
“Last year was incredibly challenging on a personal level and from a business perspective as we merged our company to create the CH&Co Group and I’m very grateful to our amazing team who have helped us achieve it all – this recognition is for all of them.”
Tim received his award at a Gala Awards Dinner attended by nearly 200 fellow finalists and guests at the Institute of Directors in Pall Mall, London.
He will now go forward to the UK IoD awards in October and compete for the title of UK Director of the Year.
