Skills
I'm offering
I'm an experienced international events manager confident in managing events from end to end and to a high-level standard. I'm confident about my industry knowledge and have worked in conferences of over 1,200 attendees and managed exhibitions of over 80 stands.
I enjoy working as part of a team but I'm driven and can work independently focusing on my individual and group tasks. I believe in having a duty of care and obligation to lead the client and partners to make the best and most beneficial decision for them and ultimately for everyone involved.
I'm looking forward to a new stage in my career where I can apply the experience that I've gained up until now whilst still learning the new trends of the industry.
