Chelsea Law, Operations
Manager, Reed Exhibitions
For Chelsea, no task is too small,
and she continually strives to
learn, deliver excellence on her
shows and produce the best
experience possible for our
clients. She has a real talent for
gathering all the information
she needs to create clear briefs
for suppliers to then exceed the
expectations of the show teams
she is working with. While still
an operations executive, she
was given the responsibility
to organise a new event and
took on this challenge with her
usual enthusiasm, delivering an
outstanding show.
Katy Leslie, Operations
Executive, Clarion Gaming
Katy has proven herself to
be an invaluable member of
the operations team. She is
passionate, tenacious and
diligent and her professionalism
onsite is second to none.
Katy had the chance to run
her first solo event in March
2019, a challenging event due
to attendance numbers and
budget restraints, and took it in
her stride, demonstrating great
leadership and boosting team
morale when needed most. Katy
has also led and mentored her
peers with new process and
has paved the way on making
sustainable changes at Clarion
Gaming events.
