Work history
Account Executive
• As a core member of the event production team, I have helped produce events for a wide range of clients such as:
• Curious Arts Festival (July 2014 & 2015)
• Carnival of Knowledge (Edinburgh, August 2014) - Hendrick's Gin UK
• Glorious 12 - Game tapas and whisky pop up (London, September 2014) - Scotch Malt Whisky Society
• Angostura Butterfly House (London Cocktail Week, 2014) - Angostura Rum
• Hendrick's Global Travel Retail (Cannes, October 2014) - WGS
• Hendrick's Emporium of Sensorial Submersion (Edinburgh, August 2015) - Hendrick's Gin UK
• Launch of the David Stewart Collection (London, October 2015) – Balvenie.
• In 2014 we launched the Curious Arts Festival (http://curiousartsfestival.com/), a brand new literature and arts festival in the New Forest. I work as part of the very small production team getting involved in all aspects, from liaising with suppliers, managing volunteers and dressing the festival site. I also assist on the PR of the festival and securing coverage in a wide range of UK press and websites.
• I do further PR for Aikwood Tower (aikwoodtower.com), a luxury exclusive-use castle in the Scottish Borders. Here I have helped develop a yearly marketing strategy, created a substantial media list and building strong relationships with journalists, as well as manage the social media channels. This has resulted in increased awareness of Aikwood Tower, the number of bookings taken, and in turn, revenue for the property.
