PERSONAL SUMMARY
Maxine makes sure that any event she organises is different from other events being held in the same sector. She has a track record of meticulously planning events from start to finish, and as a true professional she does a lot of the behind the scenes work herself and always has a ‘plan b’ for when things go wrong. Her key strengths lie in her ability to make sure guests thoroughly enjoy themselves, that the message of the event gets across and also that any event sponsors get the publicity that they want. With her present employer she is responsible for tailoring an event to its objective, be that raising awareness of a particular issue or promoting the launch of a new product. In addition to this she is also involved in deciding on how to evaluate the event to determine if it has been a success and maximising sponsor participation using a variety of channels. Right now she would like to work for a company that is committed to looking after its employees as much as its customers.
