The Belfry Hotel and Resort claimed a double success at the annual awards of the Meetings Industry Association.
The famous resort, near Sutton Coldfield, won Venue of the Year while sales director Katie Niland was named on the miaList 2022.
To secure a spot on the prestigious events industry list, individuals had to showcase how they go above and beyond to play an instrumental role in making their organisation a success.
Judges said Katie’s entry summed up what the industry is. They added Katie stood out as being highly competent and well-regarded member of the team, as well as being a confident and inspiring leader.
She said: “It’s a real honour, both professionally and personally to be named on the 2022 miaList.
“What makes this even more special is the fact that The Belfry has also been recognised as the Venue of the Year.
“Now more than ever, event organisers are relying on the venue events team to support them across every aspect of their events.
“At The Belfry, we can confidently say that with over 20 versatile meeting spaces and an award-winning team, we’ll always aim to deliver world class events.
