On Tuesday night I went to the Xchangeteam Freelancer of the Year awards which Chinwag Jobs was a media partner for.

From their website:

Freelance marketing consultant, Fraida Silver, has been crowned Xchangeteam Freelancer of the Year. The following freelancers also won the top prize in each of their categories: Melanie Vrakas for design, Sophie Banks, comms and PR, Sarah Nix, events, Jim Callender, digital and media and Karen Kay won both the editorial and advertising categories.

Overall commendations were given to Melanie Vrakas and Sophie Banks whilst Isabelle Goldstein and Mike Parkinson were commended for their comms and pr work and Duncan Marshall was commended for his work in advertising. The winners, who beat 167 other freelance consultants nominated for the title, were announced at a ceremony in Central London.

So congratulations to all who won, and hope you had a marvellous evening!
