AXREM CEO makes Women in Trade Associations Powerlist for third year running

AXREM CEO Sally Edgington has been placed on the 2025 Women in Trade Association Powerlist for the third year running. The Trade Association Forum, Confederation of Business Industry and The Federation of Small Businesses have again joined forces to champion the role of women in trade bodies, celebrate their achievements and encourage the next generation of women into the sector. To celebrate International Women’s Day 2025, the third Women in Trade Associations Powerlist celebrated the most formidable female business and sector champions in the UK.

Edgington joined AXREM in March 2019 and has worked hard to grow the association, which now represents more than 75 companies. The association has had meaningful conversations with government and government departments. “I am immensely proud of being recognised on this powerlist for the third year running, but I must say that this really is a team effort by not only my all-female staff team, but also our members, who all volunteer to enable excellent engagement using their expertise for the good of the industry, NHS and patients,” she said. “When I took on the role of CEO six years ago, while I knew it was a challenge I also knew it was a good opportunity. I would never have dreamt that AXREM would be the organisation it is today and it is something I will always be incredibly proud to have worked with my fabulous team and members to achieve, and a legacy I will always be proud of.”

AXREM chair Huw Shurmer added: “To see Sally recognised in this powerlist of women leaders for a third year is a testament to her extraordinary vision, dedication and leadership. This is not only driving success for our association but also inspiring future generations of women leaders.”
