Meetings And Events Consultant Review

Support pre-contracting for events across 13 hotels in the UK & Netherlands, coordinating bedrooms, meeting spaces, AV, catering and ancillary services.
Work on events ranging from day meetings toconferences of up to 700 attendees.
Liaise directly with customers and internal stakeholders to clarify requirements, timelines and budgets.
Shadowed Sales, Marketing, PR and Operations; contributed to content planning, in-person sales meetings, hotel rebrand photoshoots and client site visits.
Continued part-time during final-year studies following a successful placement year.

I was given independence the same as any other employee in the same role.
The department/role is very much based on group work and does not involve too much responsibility.

I really feel like I developed my communication skills and my confidence.
I also got so much more experience in sales, and office etiquette.

I received some support from my university and support from all of my managers/supervisors.

The company culture and our office atmosphere was great. Everyone was great friends and respected each other until our manager left on maternity leave. After this the atmosphere changed dramatically due to the new way the team was being lead and soon people began to leave.

I enjoyed learning and the experience but I think this was mainly due to the culture and people I worked with. I don't believe it would have been the same without them.
