Employer | Full Circle Events and Exhibitions |
Job Title | Group Marketing Assistant |
After graduating from university in 2023, I began my career at Full Circle Events and Exhibitions as a Group Marketing Assistant. The company - although a big player in the industry - didn’t have an established marketing team at the time, so I had the unique opportunity to help shape things from the ground up. Early on, I worked closely with a London-based branding agency team with the exciting opportunity to refresh the company's identity, update marketing assets, and redevelop the entire website. I was later invited to present the new brand direction to the company’s 100+ employees - a proud milestone for me. Later that year, I was honoured to receive the ESSA Young Person of the Industry Award at a national event. Following this recognition, I was promoted and now lead the marketing efforts across the entire business. With this I’ve also been able to bring in placement students and establish a dedicated marketing department- which has been mega!
