Client & Sponsor Partnership

• Work closely with clients, sponsors and internal teams to understand business objectives, audience needs, sponsor goals and measures of success.

• Act as a strategic advisor, recommending sponsorship activations and experiential opportunities that deliver meaningful engagement and commercial value.

• Present experience strategies, concepts and recommendations to senior client and internal stakeholders.

• Build strong relationships across Creative, Client Services, Sponsorship, Production, Digital and other specialist teams.

• Confidently influence stakeholders and bring together different perspectives to create experiences that work for the attendee, sponsor and client.
