What I'm looking for

I’m open to relocating within EMEA and am looking for opportunities that draw on my experience delivering B2B events and programmes across European markets.

At Merz Aesthetics, I run a multi-market Cvent programme across EMEA, turning priorities into plans with clear deliverables, owners, timelines and risks. I designed a standard event template for regional consistency and local adaptation, and configured the EMEA Conference 2026 app with 60+ sessions and content in five languages.

At LiveSalesMan, I lead customer success and operations across Europe, working with marketing and CRM teams on communication workflows, reporting and automation. Earlier, at Commerce Interact, I led marketing and partnerships for B2B conferences across EMEA, running integrated campaigns and working with sales to secure sponsors and partners.
