30 UNDER THIRTY Antonia Mitsis Bray Leino Events, Event Manager “Antonia is currently the event manager for the Department for International Trade’s (DIT) infrastructure sectors, and over the past 10 months she has delivered DIT events across four continents.” In five years’ time: Having a job that allows me to work on something different every day keeps me engaged and excited about the industry I work in. I hope that in the next five years the adventure of events keeps challenging me and that I can still say that I have never worked the same day twice. Jack Ojari Fresh Montgomery, Senior Commercial Marketing Manager “A few months into his role, Jack kicked off and led a Data & Digital Insight project for Fresh Montgomery. It was a pivotal piece of work for our transformation – and looked at each and every process and system, the tools we use, our requirements and then proposed solutions for a unified platform. He is truly an intelligent, hardworking and impressive young marketeer and data professional.” In five years’ time: I want to have been instrumental in transforming Montgomery into a company using intelligent tools to gain data driven insights, delivering events that go above and beyond expectations. Samantha Pearce Telegraph Events, Head of Marketing “Sammy has been promoted four times in five years, from marketing executive through to head of marketing for consumer events, working across around 50 different events, in nine different industries across some of the biggest event organisations.” In five years’ time: I would like to have successfully launched and developed new events into The Telegraph’s portfolio and would have grown the current events to industry leading, award winning events. I would have created new partnerships, new routes to market and created new avenues of revenue for the business. Kate Pilling Clarion Events, Senior Marketing Executive “Kate has the best marketing instincts of anyone I’ve taken on in over 30 years in the events game and is already more than halfway to earning herself a marketing manager title. Kate is an exceptional find for us and that once-a-decade find for the industry. She’s definitely one of us.” In five years’ time: I hope I will have listened, learnt and delivered to a point where I can stake a serious claim for a role as marketing director across two-plus shows. I will be leading a diverse team and helping them to develop new skills and gain new experiences. exhibitionnews.co.uk | 2018 15
