Best in the biz celebrated at Lifetime Achievement Awards 2024

NCR Lifetime Achievement Awards

National Collision Repairer magazine’s Lifetime Achievement Awards are back in 2024, fuelled by two new awards.

The annual awards celebrate individuals and their contributions to the collision repair industry and in 2024 are proudly backed by platinum sponsor Repairify.

Inductees for the Lifetime Achievement Award will have been involved in the collision repair sector for at least 20 years. They also need to have had an impact on the industry beyond their local area and direct business(es).

The new Women in Automotive award will be an important inclusion in the collision industry’s night of nights and gives recognition to women in repair businesses alongside the prestigious accolade for lifetime achievement.

The Next Generation Leader award, sponsored by Capricorn, will also be celebrated on this special night and showcase the valuable contributions made by up-and-coming achievers in the industry.

For Capricorn – Australia’s largest automotive cooperative – these awards are particularly special. The group has more than 26,000 Members across the nation representing all forms of the automotive industry.

“Capricorn are thrilled to be a sponsor of the Lifetime Achievement Awards in 2024,” Capricorn Group CEO David Fraser said.

“These awards recognise some of the most experienced individuals in collision repair and we are proud to play a part in acknowledging the contribution they have made to the industry.

“This year we’re also sponsoring the Next Generation Leader Award to show our support for the up-and-comers who will drive the industry into the future.”

The Lifetime Achievement Awards will conclude with a Gala Night on April 10 at Showtime Events, Melbourne.
