esprecruitment Goes Global...
Due to our rapidly growing international client base, esprecruitment is expanding and in the summer we will be opening an office in Dubai, where the events industry is currently booming. This will lead to some exciting opportunities not only in the UAE, but all over the world!
Dubai boasts the title of one of the world's fastest developing cities for hospitality and with this comes the excitement of a rapidly expanding events industry, and therefore a major recruitment drive.
If you are an experienced events professional and would like to hear about the possibilities that Dubai and the Middle and Far East have to offer, please send an email entitled “International jobs” with your CV for general review and we will register your interest and call you to discuss your background and aspirations.
Salary Survey
We have recently launched the results of the 2007/2008 Event Industry Salary Survey, this is the most in-depth research so far and features:
- Comprehensive salary comparisons across all levels of the events industry
- Detailed information about salary increases across all sectors
- Information on what motivates staff and why they leave their jobs
Event360 @ Palme
Due to our success at GIBTM in Abu Dhabi this year, we will also be exhibiting at Event360, which will be held at the Dubai Exhibition Centre from 27-29 April 2008.
If you are attending, do come along to stand 6C32 in Exhibition Hall 6 to find out more about our international opportunities.
International Confex
Having had yet another successful year exhibiting at International Confex for the 9th year running, we would like to thank all of you who visited our stand to have a chat about the opportunities we have on offer.
We have had some extremely positive feedback from the three seminars we presented, "Living and Working Overseas - Take Advantage of the Booming Global Events Market!". If you were not able to attend for any reason or you would like to find out more, please do not hesitate to call or email to request further information: confex@esprecruitment.co.uk.
Interested in putting all your industry knowledge to good use in a different environment? Fancy getting home from work before the 6.30 p.m. news?
esprecruitment is looking for a naturally proactive and self-motivated individual to join our close-knit team of event professionals. You must have experience in a business-to-business, events or sales role and will be currently working within the exhibition organiser or services sector. The role involves account managing an extremely buoyant sector and would make full use of your first hand knowledge of the industry and your contacts, without running events!
With strong client liaison skills and a naturally proactive approach, you will interview and advise candidates and assess their skills against your client’s requirements. You will be a strong communicator who is able to prioritise a busy workload and have excellent time management skills. The role is office based with regular attendance at industry events and exhibitions and client visits.
This is an incredibly varied and rewarding role, and although target oriented, this is not a sales role and is perhaps not what you might expect from recruitment! The successful applicant will continue to be an essential part of the events/exhibition industry whilst experiencing it from a new and exciting angle.
Should you wish to hear a little more about the role, give us a call on 020 8772 9199 or send an email with your CV attached to rebecca@esprecruitment.co.uk
We are expanding our PR and Experiential Marketing sectors...
We are constantly furthering our expansion plans and would like to welcome Jenny Royall to our team. For those of you who haven’t already dealt with her, her main focus is to manage the extremely buoyant agency sector, as well as strengthening business in the areas of Marketing and Communications.
With a wealth of experience in organising events either working for or dealing with fast-paced agencies and over a year’s experience in recruitment, we feel Jenny is perfectly placed to offer the best service for an ever-increasing demand. Jenny understands the intricacies of this sector and what makes an exceptional candidate who can not only ‘do’ the job, but also hit the ground running and fit your business culture.
“I am passionate about events and communication between people; seeing the journey an event takes from inception to completion is tremendously exciting. To now be able to play a part in finding the right people for my clients and the right companies for my candidates makes more than good sense.”
