Great company and opportunity

Have you ever really watched a little kid ride an escalator? It's pure joy. They can go up and down a dozen times and still want to keep going. Their enthusiasm never wanes. The last ride is just as exciting as the first. That level of passion is what you should also look for in a corporate event planner. You want someone who has been around the block and knows how to handle all the logistics. AND you also want someone who still gets just as excited about every event as if it were the first one. His or her eagerness will absolutely set the stage for an engaging, impactful program and carry over to every other staff member, even during the last of a multiday event. So when you're ready to plan your next corporate event, make sure you're hiring for energy and spirit because those attributes will keep you moving in the right direction. #corporatemeetings #corporateevents #meetingplanners #superpower #leslieberkeconsulting

What do you like the sound of more - Gate Captain or Event Assistant? 👀 Everyone wants to be a Gate Captain — it sounds cool and suggests a more regal duty, even though the role mainly involves distributing wristbands. It’s hardly the glamorous job you envision when you invest thousands in a degree in event management! 🎓 But - and there is a BIG but - because here’s the thing, every job at an event is crucial, even if it doesn’t come with a fancy title like Gate Captain! 🫡 At Wembley Stadium, our team of 80 dedicated staff engaged with over 80,000 people by distributing their PixMob wristbands each night in June & August. That’s an incredible amount of face-to-face interaction at an event! 🤝 So, while at The Occasionall Group (formerly Festivall Services) we might not be designing grand stages or managing high-profile guests, facilitating this simple yet essential aspect of the event has its own kind of magic. 🪄 It’s all about people, teamwork, engagement, and ensuring everyone has a great time! 🎉🙌 Every role contributes to the overall experience. To all the unsung heroes of events - it’s the little things that make the biggest impact! ❤️ 📸 ...with some of our amazing London Gate Captains, Staff Supervisors, and Pixmob’s Samantha Torres #EventProfessionals #Leadership #Teamwork #EventManagement #WristbandWarriors
