About me
I'm a charismatic, reliable, driven and dynamic individual who enjoys working as part of a team and thrives in high-pressured situations.
With five years’ experience managing large international brands and organising live events within the fast-paced world of Formula 1 and automotive industries, I am now looking to further develop my skills and grow in an industry I am very passionate about.

- London, United KingdomFull Time
EIM is a not-for-profit CSR agency which organises global and national engineering competitions for students on behalf of premium automotive brands such as Formula 1 and Jaguar Land Rover.
As the Project Manager for two of EIM’s core programmes, I was responsible for delivering these programmes on time and within budget. My main responsibilities included:
- Account/Partnership Management of B2B relationships with sponsors and partners, and coordinating activations at global automotive events, including ADNOC, Yas Marina Circuit, Jaguar Land Rover, DHL, Emirates, Pirelli, Airbus and The Royal Navy.
- Managed marketing activities across all projects including: creative development, management of social media channels, press releases, email marketing, and event activations
- Meeting annual targets and deliverables of sponsors. For example, the successful creation and coordination of a university mentor programme and Formula 1 summer school initiative at a prestigious London university
- Annually planned, delivered and managed 20 small national events (20 – 100 delegates), 3 national events (500 – 700 delegates). Event Manager at two major annual international events (800 – 1000 delegates) taking place alongside Formula 1 Grand Prix and vehicle brand launches
- Managing staff and volunteers at events and liaising with service providers for production, AV etc.
- Developed a mentoring programme in partnership with Williams F1 Racing Team
- Recruiting and remotely managing 18 delivery partners nationwide
- Leading the digital implementation and ongoing management of a large CRM data base
Working within/for a small organisation with a start-up ethos, my role was ever evolving and expanding. Having proven my capabilities I was given the opportunity to manage a new initiative within the maritime industry along with the account management of its founding organisations. This involved:
- Leading a Steering Group to develop the programme’s identity and mission with senior managers from key stakeholders
- Creating, developing and implementing the project business plan and establishing a brand identity
- Pitching for new sponsorship and taking responsibility for UK roll out and account management
My position required extensive travel to venues across the UK and to EIM’s international events, which required meticulous organisation and forward planning.
Made redundant due to a company-wide downsizing effort caused by COVID-19 pandemic.
