When I first started working in events 14 years ago, I thought it would be a great opportunity to be social and work with people in a team. Coming from a rugby background, striving towards a team goal over the course of a sporting season is very similar to working in events cycles. Every event season has a new challenge and we set ambitious goals at the start of the season. Today I have the pleasure of developing a highly talented team that support each other like a family on and off the pitch! Mike Adeniya Portfolio Director, Phacilitate (Based in United Kingdom) 1 What would you say to anyone considering a career in the world of events? You should have a nimble approach to working with clients and new product offerings as industries across the board are evolving. Customer-centricity should be at the core of your decisionmaking while demonstrating empathy and engaging regularly with your team and clients. More importantly is being able to remain driven in order to effectively produce in both inclusive and autonomous situations. Ashley Theron-Ord Senior Content Producer (Based in South Africa) 1 How would you describe the work culture at Clarion? Unlike most companies of Clarion’s size, you’re still entitled to a personality which I believe is a necessity to cultivate innovation. It can be demanding, but it’s often fun. I’ve met some of my best friends here. Tom Fisher Group Marketing Operations Manager (Based in United Kingdom) 1 2 3 Why do you love your job? In four years, I can’t say many days have been the same.

Tom Fisher Group Marketing Operations Manager (Based in United Kingdom) 1 2 What opportunities have you had for career progression at Clarion? When I first joined Clarion in 2014, I was an intern seeking an opportunity in marketing. A year later, I was converted to a full-time marketing executive and took the ownership of managing a power & energy event. It was an exciting opportunity for me to take charge of marketing for my own event. Two years later, I was then promoted to marketing manager with new challenges and career and personal development opportunities. I guess the key driver to success in my career is my passion for events. Khairunnisa-Abd-llah Senior Marketing Manager, Clarion Energy (Based in Singapore) 1 2 What have been the key drivers of your career progression at Clarion? The key drivers have been my mentors within the company in combination with my personal ambition. My mentors have been pivotal to my personal growth which is reflected in the progression from a business perspective. Again, it is all about the people.
