Screwfix Top Tradesperson 2022 - Applications Now Open!

Published: 19 July 2022 - James Mead

It’s back! Talented tradespeople from across the UK and Ireland can now apply for the Screwfix Top Tradesperson 2022 award, and the chance to be crowned the champion of the trade.  

 

Now in its 13th year, the annual award celebrates the experts of the trade, highlighting their professionalism, dedication, and exceptional skills.

It’s simple to apply. Tradespeople can put themselves forward by filling out the online form at screwfix.com/stt, or screwfix.ie/stt, or customers can nominate tradespeople they think are deserving of the title.

A selection of applicants will be shortlisted in August to take part in a semi-final interview. The selected top 10 then go through to a final, hosted by a panel of industry experts, at Screwfix LIVE in Farnborough, between 23rd-25th September.

Only one trade person will walk away with the coveted title and an incredible 'trade bundle' worth £20,000/€20,000, comprising of tech, tools, and training to take their already successful career to the next level.

Dan Lloyd, the 2021 winner and currently holding the title, said: “My colleague encouraged me to apply for the award and when I entered, I hoped I had a chance at winning, but I had to pinch myself when my name was announced.

“Going through the interview stages and meeting different people across different trades was great. Whether it was their work in the community or what they have done to better their own careers, all the finalists were worthy of the title, but to say I was thrilled to be crowned would be an understatement.

“Since winning, I have driven my business forward and the prize has meant we have been able to invest in our team and equipment without detriment to our own finances. It has been amazing.”

Jack Wallace, Marketing Director at Screwfix, commented: “Our nations tradespeople are true professionals and work incredibly hard day in, day out.  Although we reward one exceptional tradesperson through our annual award, we want to celebrate everyone in the trade and truly champion the industry, showcasing just how rewarding a career in the trade can be.

“In crowning a winner, we look for an individual who not only goes above and beyond for their customers, but also invests in the future of the trade and acts as an ambassador for the construction industry.

“We expect a raft of exceptional applications in 2022 and are really looking forward to getting a closer look at what our outstanding tradespeople have to offer, crowning one deserving winner ‘Screwfix Top Tradesperson 2022!”

Tradespeople have until Sunday 31st July to submit their application at screwfix.com/stt.or screwfix.ie/stt
