Event management

I can help you organise any type of event you have planned, including but not limited to: conferences, workshops, gala dinners, charity events, and staff incentives. As a freelance events manager, we’ll work together in whatever way best suits your needs, whether that’s in house or on an ad hoc basis for a specific event. I can also work from my own office, taking the strain away from other staff who might not have the necessary expertise to plan a large or complicated event. I’ll take care of any and all aspects of managing your event, including venue and supplier sourcing, speaker management, project schedules and budgets, as well as providing on the day support for smooth coordination. Based in Cambridge, I also cover the surrounding areas of Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex, and London.

Get in touch to discuss your event.

Often the first hurdle when planning your event, I have a huge database of venues that is constantly updated with new locations, making it easy to find the ideal setting for your event.

Get in touch now for help finding the right venue for your event.

If you have a current CMS system to register delegates I’ll work with that or help to create a bespoke registration system using one of my associate suppliers if required. Your event might need a very straightforward registration system whereas others need something more detailed to cover the different concurrent sessions, dinners, and so on. I’ll help you work out what’s best for your needs.

Contact me for help with your delegate registration.

Need help promoting your event? I’ll coordinate my associate suppliers to create all the marketing materials you need to publicise your event, such as websites, leaflets, posters, and brochures. Together, we’ll ensure they’re aligned to your branding and have a clear message that gets your guest list filling up fast.

Have you thought about who will be manning the registration desk and ensuring that delegates and speakers are where they need to be, at the correct times? This is where I can help with the smooth running of your event, from setting up registration to coordinating social activities such as gala dinners. If your event is large or complex, I’ll also bring in my assistants, and we’ll take care of everything behind the scenes so that you can concentrate on what you do best.

Get in touch to book on the day coordination.

Do you have delegates travelling to stay before and after the event? I’ll ensure they’re well accommodated, putting together detailed itineraries, arranging airport transfers, and booking hotels. And with excellent knowledge of Cambridge and the surrounding areas, I can create a truly unique experience that extends beyond the event itself.

Academic Conferences

As an experienced Cambridge based planner of academic conferences, I have the advantage of already being up to speed with the specific requirements of organising an event within an academic institution. I’ll make the whole process straightforward and stress-free, anticipating your needs to ensure a successful event that comes in on budget. I’m here for you from the very initial stages of writing the event programme and managing the abstract submission process, and I have different software systems that I can recommend for this depending on the complexity of your event.
