• Collaboration: A team player who thrives in collaborative environments, with the ability to work closely with international colleagues to deliver consistent, high-quality events.
• Adaptability & Drive: Self-motivated and adaptable to a fast-paced, dynamic environment, capable of managing multiple projects with precision.
