Administrative support professional at Comet Meetings coordinating corporate bookings, suppliers and event operations.
What I'm looking for
At Comet Meetings, I’m the main point of contact for corporate clients organising meetings and events. I manage bookings and coordinate suppliers, alongside day-to-day planning and service for on-site teams.
I redesigned the guest flow at buffet stations by repositioning and reordering key elements, which led to shorter queues and fewer complaints. I also train team members and receive positive feedback directly from clients.
In earlier roles, I coordinated kitchen workflows and managed supplies, stock and costs at Les Filles, FRASCA PRESTO, BRUT, Yarzin Sella and PURA. I’m now looking to bring my experience in planning, supplier relations and client communication to an administrative support role.
