Our team is pleased to share that Gabriel John, apprentice quantity surveyor, was awarded the accolade of ‘Young Apprentice of the Year’ at Insider Media’s North West Young Professionals Awards 2025.
Held at Manchester Central, the event championed and celebrated the region’s brightest rising stars aged 35 and under across 15 categories.
The Young Apprentice of the Year award was extremely competitive, with a total of nine finalists spanning a broad range of professional services sectors including surveying, law and finance. On his well-deserved win, the panel of judges commented: “Gabriel is leading on big projects and showing levels of responsibility above his years of experience.”
Bill Ibram, director at Gateley Vinden, said: “The whole Gateley Vinden team is absolutely thrilled for Gabriel. He has progressed tremendously since joining us in 2021 and his hard work, brilliant contributions and infectious enthusiasm has not only impressed his colleagues but clients too. Alongside the day job providing quantity surveying and employer’s agent services predominately in the education and housing sectors, he also continues to excel with his studies at The University of Salford, as well as supporting charitable fundraising initiatives. He is, without a doubt, a sterling example of an apprentice and we are so pleased to see his efforts recognised with this key regional accolade.”
