What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and highly motivated event coordinator with extensive experience in planning and executing both large and small events. My journey in event management has equipped me with a solid track record of maintaining effective communication and interpersonal relationships while successfully setting up events within budget. I pride myself on my ability to meet and exceed targets, negotiate and secure contracts, and balance priorities while adhering to tight deadlines.
Throughout my career, I have worked with various organizations, including Eventful Nigeria and EventsbyDade, where I honed my skills in vendor negotiations, budget management, and logistics coordination. I have a keen eye for detail and a passion for creating memorable experiences for clients and guests alike. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my ability to manage event timelines, oversee staff and volunteers, and ensure that every aspect of an event runs smoothly from conception to execution.
With certifications in event management and project management, I am continuously seeking opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills in the industry. I am excited to bring my expertise to new challenges and contribute to the success of future events.
