EN publisher Mash Media has
announced the launch of a dedicated
careers event designed to offer students
and young professionals, both new to
the sector and already employed in it,
the opportunity to learn more about the
choices available to build and extend
their careers in the event industry.
The one-day event will launch on 4
October 2019 at London’s Banking Hall,
a Camm & Hooper venue, and will bring
together highly engaged candidates,
industry experts and a collection of the
best employers in the sector.
The show will be the start of a
campaign to put events as a career
high on the agenda for new talent, as
well as educating the industry on the
diversity of the sector they work in and
the amount of opportunities available to
them. Across eight hours of informative
learning and employer introductions,
Event Careers Live will introduce
visitors to many of these industry
experts who have agreed to give up their
valuable time to share their knowledge
and insight with them through panel
discussions, campfire sessions and
interactive workshops.
Candidates will also have the chance to
meet with companies looking to employ
young people with a range of skills,
experience and interests. 50 carefully
selected employers will be available for
short introductory meetings that could
be the next step in each visitor’s career
in events.
Mash Media portfolio director Simon
Farnfield commented: “Most people fall
into this sector, imagine how many more
people would fall into it if they knew
how brilliant and diverse it is? Well this
is what we’re creating – a window to all
the amazing careers this industry has to
offer.”
