Venator’s Jo Douglas-Harris wins Tees Business Future Leaders Award

WYNYARD, UK – Venator, a leading supplier of specialty chemicals and ingredients, is proud to announce that Jo Douglas-Harris, Global Marketing Manager, has won the Future Leaders Award at the prestigious Tees Business Awards.

The third instalment of the Tees region’s biggest business awards event – a prestigious celebration of enterprise and entrepreneurs across Teesside and the Tees Valley - awarded eleven winners on the night.

The Future Leaders Award recognizes individuals under 35 who have already made a significant impact in their roles and are seen as the region’s next generation of leaders. Jo was recognized for her leadership, commitment to diversity, and contributions to the Women's Engineering Society, both nationally and for the Tyne & Tees local cluster. 

The award ceremony, hosted by Teesside-raised Sky Sports presenter Hayley McQueen, took place at Hardwick Hall, in Stockton-on-Tees, UK. The event brought together business leaders from across the region to celebrate outstanding achievements and raise funds for Teesside Hospice. 

Commenting on her win, Jo Douglas-Harris said, “I’m genuinely honored to receive this award. The Tees Valley is full of inspiring talent, so to be recognized among them is humbling. However, this achievement isn't just about me. It is only possible because of the amazing and supportive colleagues I have the privilege to work with every day! I’m grateful to everyone at Venator for their support – it’s wonderful to work alongside such brilliant colleagues.”
