Martin Kennaugh, manager of aviation services for the Douglas-based ICM Group, has won the prestigious ICSA Trident Trust Award for Excellence for the year 2012/13.
ICSA is the membership and qualifying body for board and company secretaries, in-house lawyers and other professionals working in governance and compliance roles.
This particular award is given to the Isle of Man based graduate on the Chartered Secretaries Qualifying Scheme (CSQS) to obtain the highest overall results each year. This scheme provides a broad skills base in law, finance and strategy, with a particular focus on governance, corporate law and compliance.
Martin was pleasantly surprised at winning the award and said: ‘It is gratifying to receive such recognition when you put so much time and effort in to professional development. As everyone knows, working full time and studying at the same time can be a struggle. We are fortunate at ICM that we are actively encouraged to study and are supported throughout. So thank you to ICM and of course ICSA Isle of Man for recognising my hard work.’
Sarah Fry, director for the ICM Group of Companies with responsibility for HR, learning and professional development said: ‘This award is a fantastic achievement for Martin and confirms his commitment to continually improving and enhancing his professional profile. Martin’s qualifications together with his sector knowledge are an invaluable asset to the ICM Aviation team.’
