Bio
Hayley Broomfield
I worked alongside Karis whilst I was at Reed Exhibitions. Karis is highly personable, organised and a great asset to an Events Team. During the pandemic, I also worked closely with Karis on a number of projects assisting and learning a new role to help the Hosted Buyer Team at Reed. She always remains professional and is a curious and diligent learner. I hope to work with Karis in the near future!
