Summary
I’m a passionate Client Director with over 17 years of experience in the events industry, having worked across the UK, EU, US, and Asia. My career, over the last 12 years, has evolved from Project Coordinator to Event Director, where I’ve managed large-scale projects across Europe for 3,000 to 16,000+ attendees. I’ve worked across diverse sectors including Pharma, FPS, Tech, and Government, supporting events such as exhibitions, digital activations, campaigns, keynote sessions, incentives, government initiatives, and celebration events.
Over the past 4-5 years, I’ve transitioned into Client Services, and now as part of the Senior Leadership Team, I focus on driving client retention and growth. My current role involves leading pitch teams, working closely with clients to ensure we meet (and exceed!) their expectations, and making strategic decisions that support both business growth and a high-performing team. I’m passionate about collaborating with internal teams, clients, and suppliers to deliver results, and I thrive on developing creative solutions to challenges.
I’m known for being hands-on and leading by example, always pushing myself and my team to deliver high-quality results, even under pressure. My ability to connect the dots across departments and bring teams together has been key to my success. Above all, I’m driven by my love for the events industry and my commitment to delivering exceptional experiences.
