More than just awards, the BAPCAs are a reflection of who we are as a team, a culture built on recognition, gratitude, and celebrating one another. They embody our values and honour the connections, teamwork, and spirit that make us stronger together, reminding us that our greatest strength will always be our people. Inspired by our Business Directors, Sam and Amy, these awards are truly for the people, by the people, shining a spotlight on our everyday champions.

With three categories that reflect our values:
Accountable, Collaboration, and
Initiative, Marilla led the effort to gather our votes and thoughts on the people who bring these values to life every day.
Watch the video: Marilla asked the team what they thought it stood for (and let’s just say the guesses were interesting). 🤭
Voting time... let's see who everyone thought reflected our values the most!
Every nomination is a reflection of the respect, gratitude, and admiration we hold for one another, making the awards a true celebration of our team spirit.

Drum roll 🥁 and our winners for our inaugural BAPCAs are...
Winner - Ramona Wardan, Senior Account Manager
She's humble, kind, and rock solid. The epitome of accountability, she does what she's going to do, when she's going to do it. Her growth over the past is something we're so proud of. Hardworking and the ultimate team player, our clients (and all of us) love working with you.
Honorable mention: Emily Duggan, Account Executive
Winner - Kristy Tong, Creative Services Director
Salt of the earth, she's always willing to help and puts our needs before her own. Collaborative isn't just a buzz word, it's about genuine interactions and thoughtful behaviour.
Honorable mention: Amy Carr, Senior Designer
Winner - Sophie Holbrook, Account Director
Only starting at Equality in 2025, she has come in guns blazin' and isn't afraid to ask why. Taking the initiative and being committed to learning the answer will always give us the edge.
Honorable mention: Nat Catalfamo, Account Coordinator
This was an opportunity for everyone to celebrate the incredible teamwork around us. Marilla even hosted a special evening to announce the winners and toast to all of us!
