Insurance Times Deputy Editor Ellen Bennett has been named the overall BIBA journalist of the year.

Bennett scooped the top prize at the awards ceremony held today at the Willis building.

Chief reporter Danny Walkinshaw also won the hotly contested online award beating off fierce competition from rival publications.

Insurance Times Editor Tom Broughton said: “This is a fantastic achievement for both Ellen and Danny and is another great accomplishment for the team. For Ellen to pick up the overall top prize is also a true reflection of the new standards Insurance Times is setting.”
