Mortgage & Property Journalist of the Year (B2B) 2026
Winner
Jessica O’Connor, The Intermediary
Jessica was described as a “great B2B writer” for striking that difficult balance between championing her audience and holding it to account. “She has a thorough understanding of the mortgage industry, and this shines through in her well-researched and in-depth articles,” confirmed one judge.
The panel also commented on Jessica’s skilful ability to “bring fresh insight to familiar topics, which is often a challenge on B2B publications”. One judge said, “Jessica has taken big, broad news topics and explained how they relate to the role of brokers, as well as championing brokers and how they can be a force for good. The conditional selling feature was brilliant - well-structured and engaging, it examined a sore subject for the property industry fairly and probed into both causes and solutions”.
