We were absolutely thrilled to have been announced as the winner at the Guaranteed Irish Business Awards 2023 in the main category of Professional Services, sponsored by FBD Insurance. 

The Guaranteed Irish Business Awards celebrate Ireland’s leading businesses that support jobs, are committed to local communities, and contribute to Ireland, its people, and its economy. The awards ceremony took place on Tuesday 14th March at The Shelbourne Hotel and recognised and rewarded the success and resilience of both homegrown and multinational businesses across various sector categories.  

Our COO Paul Carroll accepted the award on behalf of LIA and was joined at the event by Rebecca, Eva, Brian, several of our colleagues as well as our Chair, Teresa Kilmartin. This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire LIA team – thank you and well done to all our colleagues. 

During the awards process, we were assessed on how well we incorporate the Guaranteed Irish core principles of Jobs, Community and Provenance, and follow the Guaranteed Irish values of Trust, Empowerment, Enterprise and Fairness, while also demonstrating a commitment to sustainability. 

Huge thanks to all of our members and students who support us. We continuously strive to meet your ever-evolving needs, and our “Member First” ethos informs our approach to everything we do. Thank you to Guaranteed Irish for recognising this, and for promoting and supporting Irish businesses like us. Thank you also to Permanent TSB for sponsoring the awards.  

Finally, congratulations to all of the other finalists in the main category of Professional Services, the competition was very strong. We are so proud to have won!
