Think Beyond’s founder, Mercè Cozens, has been shortlisted as a finalist in the prestigious IoD Director of the Year Awards 2020.

IoD Director of the Year nomination

Chartered Marketer, Mercè, has been nominated for “Director of the Year” in the IoD’s “startup” category; an accolade reserved for the UK’s most promising businesses with less than three years of trading.

The shortlist comes following a year of continued growth for the Cheshire-based business and marketing consultancy that saw the firm expand offices to Wilmslow in East Cheshire.

Established for over 16 years, the annual Institute of Directors North West & Isle of Man Director of the Year Awards ceremony represents the pinnacle of leadership and business excellence. The IoD Awards highlight the significant contribution business leaders can make to the community.

The distinguished awards were originally set to take place in May at the Hilton Manchester Deansgate. The revised, virtual ceremony will take place on Wednesday 15th July 2020 via Zoom where the regional winners will be announced.

MD overjoyed to be IoD Start Up Director finalist

Speaking about the nomination, Mercè said: “I am simply honoured to be shortlisted as a Startup IoD Director of the Year with the Institute of Directors (IoD).

“In our first 18 months, Think Beyond has progressed so much. A new office, a new website, new clients, mentoring programme, support for women in business and expanded services are just some highlights. I am overjoyed to see our work being recognised.

“I look forward to the awards ceremony and I’d like to congratulate everyone who has been shortlisted.”

Think Beyond co-founder, Steven Cozens, commented, “We are all behind Mercè in her nomination for Director of the Year. We pride ourselves on finding bespoke marketing solutions that are right for clients, not standard offerings or retainers. Our services include training and mentoring to generate marketing change. Mercè’s passion for learning, developing people and contributing to women in business are part of what makes Think Beyond unique.”

In 2019, Mercè was recognised by the East Cheshire Chamber of Commerce for her strong business results and outstanding leadership and management skills.
