Mauve Group CEO Ann Ellis wins 'International Director of the Year' award

Mauve Group is thrilled to announce that our CEO Ann Ellis has won the 'International Director of the Year' Award at the Institute of Directors (IoD) Wales' Director of the Year Awards 2024.

Held at the prestigious International Convention Centre (ICC) Wales in Newport, the award ceremony celebrates the achievements of exceptional business leaders and entrepreneurs across the Welsh ecosystem.

The annual awards ceremony recognises industry-leading finalists from across Wales, for their contributions in areas such as innovation, sustainability, and international impact.

Mauve CEO Ann Ellis accepted the accolade on Friday 17^th May 2024 and was credited by the IoD judges:

“Ann is a true leader in every sense of the word, not forgetting where the business all started from, into a truly multi-million-pound, multi-country organisation”.

The international award acknowledges global business leaders who have developed a strong international market share, by delivering outstanding services across borders.

Judges meticulously reviewed the impactful work of many executives and decision-makers, to determine each category’s 'Director of the Year'.

Mauve Group CEO Ann Ellis expressed her gratitude, saying:

I'm thrilled to be named 'International Director of the Year'. It's an honour to be recognised by such a prestigious institution, especially one like the IoD that has supported me throughout my leadership career. Leading Mauve's growth and expansion to over 150 countries in the past 28 years has been both a pleasure and an adventure. Thank you to the judges and also to the Mauve Group team—your expertise and loyalty have made our success possible.
