What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role in events, communications, or corporate affairs where I can lead end-to-end event delivery, engage stakeholders, grow impact, and drive operational improvements.

I am an events manager and communications specialist with over five years' experience in event planning, marketing, execution, and written and verbal communications. I have led events across sectors including banking, government, corporate functions and weddings, consistently delivering within budget while driving cost savings and improved processes.

My background includes roles in event management, communications and marketing, and corporate affairs where I handled client consultations, logistics, stakeholder liaison, tender documentation, and volunteer leadership. I have a track record of increasing sales through targeted marketing and networking, winning multiple bids, and improving operational efficiency through delegation and process improvements.

I bring strong self-management, attention to detail, resilience and a positive outlook, and I am committed to service excellence and representing organizational values. I excel at stakeholder engagement, presentations, event design, and using Microsoft Office to produce reports and communications that support successful events and corporate objectives.
