The 2025 Strategic Awards are more than just a celebration, they’re our opportunity to champion the incredible talent within our industry and shine a well-deserved spotlight on professionals who are so often the power behind the scenes. This year, we’re bringing together a room full of phenomenal individuals whose impact is undeniable, even if it’s not always visible. As Sarah puts it, “These Awards are about recognising excellence that too often goes unnoticed. It’s our moment to honour the dedication, innovation and brilliance that drives our industry forward.” Marianne adds, “We’re celebrating the unsung heroes, the people who make things happen, quietly and powerfully. This is our time to lift the curtain and truly recognise their contribution.” We couldn’t be more excited to come together in 2025 to applaud the extraordinary professionals who make such a difference every day.

Strategic PA Network is an active, professional networking group for Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Virtual Assistants, Administrators, and Office Managers. Whether based in the UK or around the world, we are proudly all-inclusive and not county-specific; anyone is welcome to attend our events and be part of our thriving community.
Over the past ten years, we have organically grown into a supportive and empowering network where Assistants come together to learn, connect, and grow. Our mission is to provide a credible platform that encourages industry awareness, meaningful connections, and shared best practices.
Learning and development are at the core of everything we do, with our events exploring essential topics that bring value, spark insight, and deliver revelatory moments.
At Strategic PA Network, we believe in the power of community - lifting each other up, celebrating every success, and inspiring Assistance to reach their full potential.
