London, England, United Kingdom
Organising a wide range of events and projects across our venue portfolio. Keen interest in marketing and social media.
As part of my degree I undertook a year-long work placement with the Merlin Events London team. For the first half I was part of the Operations team, allowing me to gain great knowledge of all of the venues (Madame Tussauds, SEA LIFE London Aquarium, London Dungeons and STARDOME 4D) as well as the operational aspects of running events. During this time I was also in charge of a number of events at the London Dungeon and an Awards Dinner at Madame Tussauds. For the second half I was on the sales team, being the main point of call for any calls coming through to the team as well as assisting potential clients with ideas and generating business for the company. I worked to targets and was a member of the team at a critical point of growth as Merlin took on a new venue, the London Eye Barracuda.
