It was taken sweat, tears and hours of careful deliberation to reach this point, but here it is: the shortlist of Britain's highest-flying businesswomen under the age of 35.
This year, we received hundreds of entries for our annual 35 Women Under 35 campaign. All of the nominations were seriously impressive; whittling down the list to 65 shortlisted candidates was no mean feat.
From manufacturing to mining, tunnelling to technology, and food to funerals, women are blazing trails in every sector of UK plc.
The 35 finalists will be profiled in the July/August edition of Management Today magazine. Stay tuned. #35Under35
