About the Team Awards
The Team Awards celebrate the importance of an exceptional team to an organisation’s overall success. An outstanding team’s contribution will have secured due recognition for a business and defined it for the impact it has had within its sector and beyond. Standing out for its talent and resolve, an award-winning team will demonstrate sophisticated team-working skills and division of labour, nurturing the organisation’s future success and contributing to its elevated status.
Beneficiaries of these awards will be employees whose ability to work as part of a team has collectively marked them out within their organisation. Their achievements will have generated positive interest in the company and focused attention on the way in which it shapes its business, its products and/or services.
It is our aim to reward those who excel in their sector by offering four different team categories to enter:
The Team Awards are open to businesses of all sizes. Whether you are an established name or an innovative start-up with a small, dedicated team, we encourage you to enter your employees in the Team Awards and showcase the valuable contributions and unique teamwork across one or more of these categories. Enter the Team Awards for 2025 to spotlight your staff’s excellence and boost workplace morale.
Why Enter the Team Awards?
Winning a team award not only highlights the combined achievements of talented and deserving individuals, it also serves to showcase an organisation and the significance of the collaborative work carried out within that setting. As such, the impression made by an outstanding team brings increased exposure for the company, promoting its reputation within its sector and enhancing its public perception. Team Awards also help to motivate your workforce and boost employee morale by demonstrating your commitment as an employer to recognise excellence in the workplace. This can lead to strengthened team bonds, whilst also helping you to attract top talent to your organisation.
Unlike those of other team awards, our submissions are open every quarter. This means you can enter for an award at the best time for your organisation during the year, making it easier to align an award entry with your team development programme or completion timeline. For 2025, entry deadlines are on the last working day of January, April, July and October, and winners for each round hold their title for twelve months.
The Team Awards are run and administered by Awards Intelligence, the UK’s leading provider of business awards support services. The Team Awards are judged by an independent judging panel, and their expertise means they can go a step further to support potential winners, offering our clients drafting services, saving them valuable time and effort by curating compelling entries that maximise their chances of winning. Our expert guidance ensures that businesses of all sizes can craft strong, competitive entries that stand out before the judges. By helping you articulate your achievements with clarity and impact, we increase your chances of gaining the recognition your innovation deserves.
