  • Work in partnership with the Event Director, Operations, Marketing and the wider show team to ensure the smooth running of the even and a best-in-class experience for our customers.

  • Thrive in a Fast-Paced Environment: You are at your best in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where quick decision-making and adaptability are essential. You can navigate and succeed in high-pressure situations.
  • Industry Expertise: While not essential, it would be advantageous if you have a background in telesales, media sales, or exhibitions.
