The CEO Award – ‘Exceptional Business Impact’ is the highest honour presented at the Big River Group Conference, awarded to an individual who has delivered exceptional results while demonstrating customer focus, commercial thinking, teamwork and a genuine commitment to making Big River Group stronger for the future.
This year’s recipient: Brian Relph.
As CEO John Lorente shared when presenting the award: “We talk about knowledge, we talk about commitment, we talk about expertise – Brian Relph has all of these.”
For 34 years and counting, Brian has given it his all – taking on any role needed and looking out for everyone who’s come through our doors along the way. That kind of loyalty and commitment is exactly what this award is about.
Congratulations, Brian, on a truly well-deserved win – and to every single person who was part of making this conference one to remember.
