We are pleased to announce that Informed Choice chartered financial planner Martin Bamford has been shortlisted for three awards at the Unbiased.co.uk Media Adviser Awards 2012, including the prestigious IFA of the year title.
In addition to IFA of the year, Martin has been shortlisted for social media adviser of the year and best blogger of the year.
The ninth annual Unbiased.co.uk Media Awards look to recognise the valuable contributions of individual advisers to the public image of independent financial advice and professional advice in general.
One of Martin’s roles at Informed Choice is media relations and he enjoys helping journalists with expert commentary and analysis for their features.
Last year, Martin spoke to over 500 journalists from the trade and consumer financial services press, ensuring that Informed Choice was featured in the national press on more than 120 separate occasions.
He is a prolific commentator in the industry press, where his opinions help to shape the direction of retail financial services and prompt healthy debate.
At the Media IFA of the Year Awards 2011, Martin was named best IFA individual and best social media IFA, with Informed Choice winning best IFA firm.
Our congratulations go to all of the shortlisted individuals and firms. Looking at the finalists for these awards, we are conscious that Martin faces some very stiff competition this year!
The awards will be held at a central London venue on the evening of 7th March 2012.
