What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a collaborative environment that values creativity and growth.

With a robust background in customer service and events coordination, I have successfully managed high-profile projects and built lasting relationships within the industry. My role as Office Manager at The Gibraltar Philharmonic Society has allowed me to collaborate with renowned classical musicians while overseeing a substantial budget and implementing effective PR campaigns.

In addition to my managerial experience, I have served as a Personal Assistant to the Artistic Director, where I honed my skills in handling sensitive information and coordinating complex travel arrangements. My ability to adapt quickly and communicate effectively has been pivotal in ensuring the success of various events and maintaining high standards of service.
