About Esther
Esther began her training in September 2022 and by December 2022 she was finished, which reflects her eagerness to learn and ability to pick up the training successfully.
There’s a lot of pros about Esther’s job including going on trips, training days, going to see venues first hand and the huge variety of tasks that come with the role. She loves everything about it, from planning a meeting for a smaller group of 30 people to a large Christmas party accommodating 500 people – no two days are the same! It’s not like any other job – it’s very fun and exciting and she loves helping clients who’re unsure of what event they would like and exposing them to the coolest and quirkiest venues around.
