There is no cost to enter the award, and the entry process can be completed online.

HOW TO ENTER

Some tips on how to get your entry right:

Click the button at the top of the screen to submit your entry. It's best to keep this window open so you can see the criteria to help you complete the entry later on.

You'll be asked to give the email address of a manager who will endorse your entry. We will only follow up with them in person if you are successful in being shortlisted, but they will receive an email when you have submitted your entry asking them to click a button to endorse your entry - so it would be good to let them know before you enter! Your manager won't be able to see the contents of your entry, just that you've entered and are requesting their endorsement. Note that if they don't click to endorse you, your entry won't be valid. (You can check the status of your entry any time on the submission platform.)

You have 500 words to let us know why you think you deserve to win the Pattenmakers Young Facilities Manager Award 2023. Please bear in mind these key criteria when compiling your entry:

Has a high standard of professional ethics
Has or has had managerial responsibility (people, facilities or other resources)
