Two Wealth Designers Advisers Named Finalists in 2026 Women in Wealth Awards

We’re pleased to share that two of our exceptional team members have been named finalists in the 2026 Women in Wealth Awards.

Principal Wealth Adviser and Head of Advice Delivery Michelle Flanagan has been recognised in the Financial Planner of the Year – NSW & ACT category, while Principal Wealth Adviser Cara Graham has been named a finalist in the Financial Planner of the Year – WA & NT category.

The 2026 Women in Wealth Awards

The Financial Newswire Women in Wealth Awards recognise women across the financial services industry who demonstrate leadership, innovation and a strong commitment to the people they serve.

At The Wealth Designers, we believe in celebrating the women in our team (see our Women in Wealth page for more information) and in supporting a diversity of perspectives that strengthen outcomes for clients and the profession as a whole.

Helping clients live with money and meaning

For Michelle and Cara, this recognition reflects the care and consideration they bring to their work each day – supporting clients to navigate complexity, make financial decisions aligned with their values, and LIVE WELL™ with both money and meaning.

It also reflects the broader strength of the team, following Dawn Thomas’s success at the 2025 Women in Wealth Awards, where she won Financial Planner of the Year (WA & SA) and was named overall Financial Planner of the Year.

The awards will be held on Thursday 4 June at Doltone House, Jones Bay Wharf in Sydney. We’re proud to have Michelle and Cara as part of The Wealth Designers and wish them the very best of luck!
